That's West side of Bluff flowing / being blown South towards 74.

I see the same flow rate and direction at the S curves on Ridge. The water is flowing towards the front of Ridge instead of the back of the Ridge. Natural drainage is towards the swamp in the back.

Well since y'all have been listening to my crap I'm gonna post this here.

I broke off to go run and see how bad it got at my house in STA.

Carpet is still dry and water is going down. I am the luckiest sonuvabitch in all of Ascension parish.

Now, back to ridge road.

Well the water won't really be able to get out of bluff swamp till they can open the locks, and that won't be soon.

We just need it to quit fricking coming up. Id take that consolation prize right now.

I feel like the luckiest person in Watson as well.
There were National Guard high water units within a short walking distance from my house.

I was in there yesterday and water from lake had went down. Flood map shows water getting in there. They are watching 74/Bluff situation holding their breath

Unless the flooding from bluff causes New River to rise a ton, I can't see it having any effect on the lake in Old Mill

Amen. I've got right at a foot left. Hoping and praying it stops coming up soon. Do y'all think the water flowing over 74 is helping to slow the rise inside bluff swamp?
