I am seeing reports the Mississippi River is running backwards.
HISTORY (missing that it did so during Laura)
HISTORY (missing that it did so during Laura)
quote:
The first time the Mississippi reversed its flow was in 1812, when a massive earthquake in the region caused a “fluvial tsunami” in the river, sending the water straight back where it came from. The actual seismic activity began at the tail end of 1811, but it wasn’t until the new year began that the water started going in the opposite direction.
Since 2005, the Mississippi has actually reversed flow twice. The first time was during Hurricane Katrina, when the flow was reversed and it was an astonishing 4 meters (13 ft) higher than usual. However, the reverse flow of the river only lasted a relatively short time, just a few hours.
In 2012 the Mississippi ran backward for an incredible 24 hours in the aftermath of Hurricane Isaac. The force from the hurricane was so strong that the river started moving water at a rate of 5,200 cubic meters per second (182,000 cubic feet per second) in the wrong direction. In case you’re keeping track, that’s a more powerful flow than the Mississippi typically reaches when going downstream, and the increased power is pretty significant.
At the end of the day this just serves as a not-so-subtle reminder that Mother Nature is never, ever to be trifled with.

This Jokko guy has a dashcam going in Galliano which seems pretty ballsy. Shits starting to get real.

NOLA Cam Cats Meow Balcony looks mild. Is it LIVE or has Ida moved inland past NOLA?

Here is a street view in Google maps of where the GI camera is located. From what I can tell the camera is located on a power pol on the south side of the street

The Midland company doing LIVE video from GI just got business. I am in a hurricane prone area and will be buying his weather radio for 10% off.

Looks like NOLA is not going to get the bad stuff. The storm is tightly focused so the most intense parts only goes like 30-50 miles out from the center of the eye. Normally it would be much further.

Sorry for not updating, had to do the yard before it hits here tomorrow. I just added a few of the more recent links.

Is Jokko really in Galliano? Seems awfully calm for being so close to Ida. It's only around 25 miles from Grand Isle.
