Dude, amen. First time I've ever went that way, it was so easy. I'm going to go back up that way next time I go to Ruston. 167 sucks arse

The way through Alexandria up 167 is garbage.

As a Bunkie resident I cringe having to drive to Ruston.

Old landing floods pretty easily. I've launched a boat at the launch where the road drops down on the south side

If history is any indication, Old Landing is likely under a lot of water. I remember that area flooding during tropical storms and hurricanes. This is so much worse

As of 20 minutes ago, my dad said it is 3 feet away from the highest amount of water we've ever had under the house (Isaac). This is near 4th st. Launch/old landing

I live in the back of River Oaks, i'm not on the bayou but the houses across the street are. I went to my neighbors house about 530 this evening and it was about 6 feet lower in his backyard than Issac. Going to check again before I go to bed. The difference was Issac had a huge push of lake water pushed back up in here. My neighbor has been here 14 years and was not too concerned.

Oh my...this isn't good. I remember Issac was the highest we have ever seen it by my parents house (26.8ft crest according to that link). Another 5 feet could be bad news bears

I hope you are right because the NWS link said Issac crested at 26.8 ft and that the river is currently at 28.3

My parents are in Beau Chene. Not too far away from the gauge but far enough to hope is isn't affected as much closer to the mouth
