re: Harvey ***Catastrophic Flooding Event***

My sister (no pics) works at Woman's Hospital in Baton Rouge said that they have already taken in sick and premature babies from a hospital in Lake Charles, and are on standby to take in plenty more if needed. They did this after Katrina and those doctors and nurses were damn near heroic in they work they did in those days after the storm.

I just saw on the news that Barker reservoir has breached its levee

Flash Flood Watch expanded into central & south central Louisiana

included you and I, S

Avoyelles & Rapides Parishes are included in the new watch

92L has officiall been given "potential tropical cyclone" designation

Where is this? I was on Wunderground earlier and didn't see anything other than Harvey in the Tropical section.

Also, can we get Peej to predict that 92L will hit Baton Rouge? Thanks.

Radar starting to fill in again. However, the heavy rain signal isn't nearly as strong as it was yesterday at this time. There is some drier air mixing in to the circulation and cloud tops are much warmer than yesterday afternoon/evening.

I am not worrying about the pool. He lives sort of in my area and it was an indication of the rainfall. Why I said it was at least 6 inches each time.

Those are ensamble members of the GFS I think. You can think of it as that models projected spread of possible tracks.

Any folks know where to find an estimate of the projected peak level of Spring Creek at Kuykendahl over the next few days? Street drains are handling the water fine now, but concerned that water level may rise quickly when it has nowhere else to go.
