Ditch is backing up about halfway through the yard.

Im worried about the grandparents on Amite. Hows the water compared to issac so far?

I'm about a mile from the French Settlement Amite crossing, it's getting high but not dangerously high yet

I live five feet above the street, which is 1 foot above therest of the area. House is built on a large mound and I'm high and dry.

Streets all around me aren't in as good a position right now though. I was almost swimming twice on my way home a few minutes ago.

The parts that don't drain well are. Had a rain about 6 months back, and the water was a foot deep flowing around my house

Drove from one side of Metairie to the other, and there wasn't any flooding, just a little water on roads here and there

Nothing like Isaac so far.

Friend's house on the river by Tin Lizzy's is about 2' from his backdoor.

Not even close off highway 22 outside of Toula. There were a lot of homes that got completely flooded out for Issac.

Kinda worried about the salt water in the grass, but I guess it'll be pretty diluted.
