I might be jumping the gun with this question, but are there any preliminary estimates on how many houses got flood damage? Has to be in the 10s of thousands?



Can probably add 0 to that.

I was close last night but it is going down. Hopefully keep this break in rain up and my street will fully drain. I've been stuck since Saturday.

So there's really no way of knowing how much rain New Orleans is going to get over the next 2-3 days?




No, not with any level of certainty. The possibility of significant rainfall totals is there though.

They must have changed the PW, because rescue didn't work for me just now.

I can tell you this morning's commute was quite a bit heavier than normal, even for the first day of school.

Waiting on company email to be released as to what we need to do down south in Houston. Seems like networks are still holding up and the ones that are down are due to high water. We cannot get their right now and the carriers seem to have their groups ready to go.

So if you don't have service for some reason. We know, there's nothing we can do until we are able to assist the telecom carriers.

Stay strong OT Houstoners.

Here's a good explanation for us in Southeast Louisiana from one of the more respectable members on my website:

quote:

Forecast will be very tricky for SE LA, that squall line (convergence) over SW LA and GOM is on the move towards SE LA/MS Gulf Coast. At one point it will stop its progression towards the east as the Bermuda ridge will be pushing in from the east towards FL over the next 2-3 days. Where does it stop and becomes stationary will dictate who will see the heaviest amounts of rains over the next few days, will it be the River Parishes, Nola/north shore area or the MS Gulf Coast? Time will tell, keep up on the updates from the HRRR model.

Not sure if there was a levee rupture, but the Conroe dam is releasing water at twice the rate of its previous record. 73k cfs being released down the San Jac river.

CN is going to have problems... every person just needing a ride is flooding their radio instead of people with true life and death emergencies


Sucks having to make these decisions
