Correct. I should have clarified that. It was crossing Tiger Bend and just at the base of Green Trails.

I'm reporting live from the corner of Chadsford and Kennesaw if anyone around here is worried.

The water is rising 4 inches an hour. And it's up to the sidewalks on the corner

Cop just stalled his patrol car out in the water on Harris Drive near Sherwood (I think). Dispatcher sounded pissed.


I'm thinking this is a Livingston Parish issue, not EBR.

Night LSUJuice. I hate that the media has been so mum on this as we are literally listening to people get woken up by rising floodwaters.

Congrast, you have just given us our first indication that backwater flooding is beginning on Clay cut. You are one of the first areas expected to get backwater from Clay cut too so it makes sense.

Yeah it isn't terrible right now. I'm worried because it's rising at a steady pace and we're pretty clueless about when it will crest.

YOU OKAY? YOU DRY? YOU NEED HELP?

I think I'm good. Driving up Confederate from Tiger Bend, and it's a HUGE elevation to my house. I can't imagine it coming up that high. But the thing is, I can't believe what's already happened and I have no idea what more is in store.

I'm more concerned about my boys. They are near Sherwood and on Harrell's Ferry. Right next to interstate. Flood maps show they should be good, but shows Camelot area flooding, which is not too far from them.

Per Facebook people are evacuating a homne on Harco Drive and Florida. Not sure how significant the flooding is.
