I drove hwy.59 at 7:45AM to check on my business. Building was fine and we had power. Also drove to Prieto marina to check on father in laws sail boat. Water looked to be three to four feet above normal. Some boats are in trouble. All I have right now. good luck to all.

Just lost power in Quail Creek.

Just tuning in here, has the barge situation been mentioned?
BTW, I live off 22 on the west side of Ponchatoula and power is off for that whole grid. I'm currently in the LP at the moment.

They just talked to a parish official on Ch 9 a few minutes ago. They are worried about them getting loose and hitting bridges. This is from the wafb website:

Information from Tangipahoa Parish Government:
ALERT:
Tangipahoa Parish EOC has received a warning that there is a group of barges in the south pass of Manchac that are now being held by a single line. If these barges break loose, they have the potential to damage the railroad, US Hwy51, and/or I-55 bridges at Manchac. The public is urged to use extreme caution until the barges can be secured. The barges' owner, Davey Shoring, is in route to scene. The operator, Crosby Tugboats, will not dispatch tugboats to secure the barges due to the weather conditions. The La. State Police, Canadian National Railroad and US Coastguard has been contacted and are in route.
SHELTER:
As of 7am, Tangipahoa Parish has 1,007 residents in seven(7) parish shelters and 3 companion pets are being care for by the Tangipahoa Parish Animal Shelter.
POWER OUTAGES:
There are approximately 9,600 customers in Tangipahoa Parish without power. Outages are mostly in the Hammond, Pumpkin Center, and Ponchatoula areas with some spotty outages throughout the parish.
TREES & ROAD CLOSURES:
The parish has workers in route to remove a downed tree on Mike Cooper Road off of Hwy 445. There are no other reported road closures at this time

I'd think that properly securing barges would be higher on the the priority list of barge owners than it apparently is.

Westchester and magnolia heights out of power. Still have power on OST.

That is amazing, hard to believe barges weren't secured.
Posted on 8/29/12 at 9:17 am to NorthshoreTiger76
Thinking about trying to make it home to Madison farm, while power is still on. Any cars on the road?
