When it told me the path from Shreveport was only the "Atchafalaya River" I knew it had some flaws.

Rain that falls in my area can take three significantly different paths to the gulf.

Apparently, instead of just going into Calcasieu Lake a raindrop from Lake Charles decides to travel all the way to Vermillion Bay?

I call shenanigans

I think I figured out why it’s always flooding in Louisiana.

I live in a terminal basin. None of the rain that falls at my house reaches the ocean.

Does it ever flow down to an aquifer? What’s the city you live in? I’d love to see how that website responds

It’s amazing to think that we have all breathed the same molecules that Hitler did.

Pretty sure the raindrop that lands in my yard just gets absorbed into the grass and soil and doesn’t travel anywhere. Stupid fricking thread.

It's definitely wrong for most of BR.

It just says Mississippi River, but a raindrop in my neighborhood goes local drainage to Bayou Fountain, then to Bayou Manchac, then to the Amite River, then to Lake Maurepas.

So it's a water model that doesn't consider groundwater at all. Ok. Fail.
