Luling is a disaster zone. Roof damage is ubiquitous. Trees are defoliated or snapped. I’d be amazed if any fences are standing. Water from rainfall is starting to fill up ditches and canals.

Part of our roof is gone and water is streaming down through our HVAC system, into the walls, and down windows.

I’m lucky that we aren’t experiencing overtopped levees but I won’t count my chickens til they hatch.

Praying hard. Many tears are being shed and will be shed once this is over.

Hate reading this and know the feeling all too well. Your road to recovery will be long and emotionally taxing, but, trust me when I tell you, you have what’s important. You’ll learn just how “stuff” stuff is bud, so keep your chin up.

To all those, in now decimated locales, without flood insurance: get it now. I don’t care how high you are, I don’t care how old your home is, get flood insurance.

If Luling is that fricked up I imagine St. Rose is too. Glad family left

Anyone have any more updates from the Luling area? Specifically around Mimosa or whatever they are calling the Willowdale area back by the golf course? Grew up right there and still have friends there that were staying as of late Saturday but I haven’t been able to get in touch with.

Also, any word regarding Ormond over in Destrehan? Parents of friends there as well.
