Saw a ton of those balls of all sizes. It was crazy. Didn't know what it was at first and swept it aside. That's where I got the majority of the bites.

Seems like she's been on Valiums or something the whole time. She's been laughing it up, playing with cats, making odd comments, etc. She's been very awkward to watch, and I don't want her to be talking

He keeps saying it doesn't make sense for that to be around 4 feet and everything else upriver to be much higher. But yeah that does look legit.



Well he's an idiot then. There is only so high above sea level a gage can be on a river that flows into Lake Maurepas and subsequently Lake Ponchartrain.

That is why the crest level is lower and lower on an absolute basis the farther you get down the river. I wonder if Grimes is dumbfounded that the Mississippi River @ Venice is .83 feet while the gage in Baton Rouge is nearly 20 feet.

It just seems like the water hasn't reached there yet. Land flattens out around south Ascension Parish compared with northern parts of the area, and flow will decrease with the lower slope.

That double murder suicide?

Daughter and ex of a guy I worked with a while back. He talked about them all the time. I'm just sick and livid right now.


I don't know what you heard but nurse from hospital told me the real story (was not just shooting) and it is the most disgusting story I've ever heard.

Dude deserves to burn forever.

Per Gulf Coast Weather

quote:

Gulf Coast Weather

***ASCENSION PARISH***

(this is not meant to hype nor scare..please be prepared)

IF YOU'RE IN ST. AMANT OR SORRENTO, YOU SHOULD CONSIDER GETTING OUT. THERE IS FEAR OF ASCENSION PARISH FILLING UP WITH WATER.

***AS YOU CAN SEE IN THE POSTS BELOW, ALL LOCAL GAUGES ARE RISING***

SORRENTO: LA Hwy 22 at Airline Hwy is already covered and is not passable. ***Water is expected to rise in Sorrento another 3 to 4 feet per the Mayor of Sorrento and the entire city of Sorrento is expected to flood.***

ST AMANT: Same as Sorrento...if you're still at home and have a ways of evacuating, PLEASE GET OUT NOW. DO NOT WAIT. The entire city of St Amant may get an additional 3 to 4 feet of water overnight.

GONZALES: Pretty much the same as above....please leave if you can. Even if the scenario mentioned above does not reach you, flooding from the Blind River will likely reach you over night or tomorrow.

ST GABRIEL/DUTCHTOWN/GEISMAR: Water is pouring over Alligator Bayou Road, slowly eroding Alligator Bayou Road into the swamp along Bluff Road. If you're along Hwy 928, Hwy 74, Hwy 73, etc., PLEASE keep a close eye on your surroundings as these waters are flowing at an alarming rate through the lowest elevations first.

When it comes to the Lamar Dixon Expo Center, yes that is a pet friendly evacuation center, and yes we have heard chatter of the Lamar flooding, HOWEVER WE CANNOT CONFIRM THIS.

If you do not have water right now, do NOT get complacent....GET OUT. It does not matter if you've never flooded before. It does not matter if you did not flood in 1983. This is an event of historical proportions that no one alive has ever dealt with before.

I'm curious to see how high it is getting next to the interstate. Swamp was full when I went up around 12pm. I wouldn't be surprised if water went over the road some time tonight or tomorrow morning
