Damn, they obviously have some major drainage issues around there. Sucks because Mestizos is really good.

And the next council meeting will devote 90% of the time discussing which street names need to be changed to appease the Black Lives Matter movement as 30 black people are unable to work today because of the flooding.

This pattern started a few years back. This area never flooded before then. Something is going on to make this happen.

That stinks.
Seems like from what I was seeing earlier people in Destrehan were flooding again today just five weeks after their last flash flood. The pumps were late to come on or something.

This. It seems when BLM needs something, SWB and Latoya the Destroya move quickly. Pot holes and drainage? That's an issue for the next administration.

It always flooded under the railroad tracks but I don't remember it flooding that far north of the tracks. Does seem as if something new has caused this to start being such an issue.

My family and I were trapped at the Saltgrass Steak House right off the interstate at Acadian for about an hour. Both interstate on ramps were underwater.
