Appears to be a non natural sink hole caused by that drainage pipe.


Yeah. The run off from I-59/20, Frontage Road, and the commercial parking lots runs through that pipe to Sowashee Creek behind the IHOP. That creek moves a bunch of water during a heavy rain.

I was sentenced by my employer to live in Meridian for 2 years in the early 90s.

The road there was closed for a while and the interstate is right behind there but was always opened. They determined the collapse was contained and couldn't spread and reopened that road. They just recently finished that parking lot and fricked up that job. The drainage under the service road and interstate had been there for years and was safe.

Hey Pectus.
You ever find dinosaur bones hiking at Clarks Creek?

A sinkhole in Meridian, MS is an upgrade.

That would be impossible.


Way too young exposure.

I have found Ice Age mammal bones, however.
