Yes, almost certainly. If not over the exact same ground, within a 75-100 mile radius.

Remember, there have been four 100+ year floods in Louisiana in the last year alone. Shreveport, NELA, Northshore, and BR. You can be dismissive of climate change all you want, but one of the predicted indicators is more torrential rainfall events.

An important factor is development and how that storm water is handled.
