re: Will any of us see a flood like this again in our lifetimes?

Category 5 hurricane wouldn't drop this much rain....unless it just sat on top of us for two days.

A Cat 5 storm isn't the rain maker. I had just moved to Houston in 2001 when Tropical Storm Allison hit dumping 40" of rain on the city. It's certainly not out of the realm that Louisiana will have many such floods. In fact, it's probable.
