. Im at no risk but hate seeing this for people here in LC area, BR and Laffy.

Yeah I'm at a very low risk of flooding (as you know from our discussion during Laura), but this is just terrible for LC (and Laffy, BR, etc). n

Hey Cgrand,

I'm wonder if we might know each other as I live in Woodland Ridge from 1976 to 1985.

That’s not true. Canal St def has issues at times downtown, especially towards the interstate.
Shouldn’t be an issue today though unless a bunch of more rain comes this way

Downtown doesn't really flood. It's "high" which is why the French Quarter/"historic" part of the city was there originally.

Tell that to Jung Hotel

That's brutal, but I'm sorry I can't help but laugh at the "caution wet floor" sign up

I wonder how that new huge Bellacosa / DR Horton neighborhood faired that everyone fought against. It was a green space flood area for Jones Creek during 2016.


The newer construction usually fairs very well. It is the older developments nearby that take the hit.

We will have dozens of people come in and tell us that there is no way for anyone to plan for these 500 year rains since they only happen every 500 years.

Anybody have news on mid-city area near park avenue? I know it was a little away from the big hit but just wanted to see if anyone had an update.

oo much development in southern areas of Calcasieu the past 20 years in rice fields has (1) removed those fields as drainage areas and (2) put housing in historic area of drainage/water accumulation during rain


yet the mayor and the weatherment are spouting a bunch of climate change bs instead of admitting the problem

same thing in south of Lafayette and south of Baton Rouge - all development South of town in old sugarcane fields
