re: Mississippi River Rising

Gotta remember, during the '73 flood, the Morganza Spillway was opened for the first time. Lot of the water that would have had to go out the Ms. went out the Atchalafaya, so there isn't a good way to compare the two. They didn't have the Morganza Spillway or the complete levee system in '11. And the Army Corp of Engineers have proved they cant compute how much water will flow thru the Morganza Spillway or how high the water will get, when they open the gates. Remember the fiasco in '11.

We moved our trailers, etc., from the camp on the Ouachita River, yesterday. It likes about 5' flooding our camp, but it doesn't look good.
