Those projections are going to be redone though. I wouldn't make any bold predictions yet.

Yeah, that's what I'm praying for right now.

I'm in BR, water isn't that bad on Highland.

With the amount of rain projected for the next few weeks, anyone know how close this can get to all time month totals?

Hoping the office shuts down in Kenner early today

Central Gulf Coast
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
...High Risk of Excessive Rainfall Continues Across Portions of
the Central Gulf Coast...

Abundant moisture remains in place across the Southeast, with the
exceptionally anomalous 2.5-2.75+ inch PW values along the central
Gulf Coast, including an observed 2.79" per the KLIX 12z RAOB.
These values are between 3-4 standard deviations above the norm
(near record values). The best description of this system is that
of a sheared inland tropical depression or a monsoon depression,
as the upper high over the system has retrograded into TX,
advecting north to north-northeast flow over the top of the
system. The best analog is Tropical Depression Five (2010) during
its second trip into the Gulf Coast, though this system has proven
to be a broader with its rainfall footprint. Given the deep high
theta-e/moist profile for optimal warm rain processes (wet bulb
zero heights beyond 16,000 feet), the threat for heavy tropical
banding rains across this area will continue given the slow
westward drift of the low- to mid-level warm core cyclone.

WPC maintained a fairly large swath of areal-average QPF between
4-5" across central LA and southwest MS. Most of the
higher-resolution guidance indicates pockets of much higher
amounts, 7-20" additional inches of rain between now and 12Z Sat.
Given the additional heavy rains over increasingly saturated soils
(low FFG values) and current radar and instability trends, the
MARGINAL, SLIGHT, MODERATE and HIGH risk areas in the day 1
Excessive Rainfall Outlook (ERO) were expanded north and westward
across LA, TX, and AR -- this was coordinated with the Lake
Charles, Houston/Galveston, Shreveport, and Little Rock Forecast
Offices. Significant to catastrophic flash flooding should
continue/is still anticipated in association with this unusual
heavy rain event.

Anyone have the video of Jones Creek at White Oak Landind crossing? I heard it was bad.

That's my route to I10 rn

Can haarp shut this thing off? How accessible will Zachary be tommorow?
