Unfortunately I don't besides around 6pm on at least 4 separate 100 yard stints water was pouring across 22 from the north side to the south flooding houses real bad. Can't remember if any of those were by kraft or not.

I'm late to the thread but Woodbridge has been flooded in since yesterday. My buddy has been stuck in his house.

My aunt in Whitmar have been flooded in as well but think they said it's going down last I've heard

I know West is really bad approaching pumpkin center road. Springfield is literally underwater, my home currently has 3ft of water. We had none before 7pm or so.


I can definitely confirm Springfield is underwater. My house is on West street outside the city. It's in a zone x. So its not even in the 500 year flood zone. We left with about 2.5 feet in it and rising.

Is the natalbany cresting in springfield? I can't find a good gauge that far down other than the one in baptist. Ponchatoula creek runs into natalbany and right now ponchatoula creek is backing up into woodbridge and whitmar acres.

Yea I was figuring going north and heading east. Didn't know if Indepence/Loranger area was clear to get across to Covington/Abita Springs/Pearl River.

That's by the Robert super market.
That's Cooper tires on the right. Coleman road is right behind the guy who took the pic. He lives at the end of it. He's the only one that didn't flood over there. Has a dozen people at his house. They rescued neighbors all day yesterday.

It's high over there too. This is so much worse than March. Such a mess.
