Any way to find out the elevation of Bluebonnet vs Burbank?


The intersection shows at 17.8 ft on the LA flood map.

i saw aerial of pollard yesterday. looked flooded. not to the point where it was over the houses but bad enough that id get out if i were in there



The parts of Pollard in the Flood Zone had water in the streets and in some houses. From what I have seen since yesterday evening, the water has gone down some. I haven't walked down Dahlia today, but between 1 PM and 5 PM yesterday, the water had receded.

That whole area is an AE flood zone, so they should have flood insurance, if they have a mortgage (I think, correct me if I'm wrong).

Yeah elevation 26-27 on anything connected to Manchac should be ok. Probably can't go anywhere, but still high enough.

Do you know what system Weiner drains into? You say backflow is already occurring there - at what rate?

No idea I'm on other side. It looked bad going up Chadsford towards St Michaels though looking from this si


I spoke with my sister a few minutes ago. She said her end of Chadsford near St. Michael is fine, however three or four houses away is where water is.

She said that I cannot access Woodlake Drive (WOL) as it is completely flooded.

Honestly type it into Google maps for directions. They have most of the lane closures in their system and you can see interactive traffic

Will Cover has been posting about that area. Scroll through his past posts. 3/4 of Creek round Ave was flooded last he mentioned.

42 and Jefferson area is dry so far. I've heard parts of 42 heading east has water in streets in the neighborhoods to the north. Everything along Jefferson from Sammys to 42 is built up on a hill so it should be fine

How are you doing? How's Festus?

We're okay for now. Water is halfway up the yard from the road and still rising slowly. A few houses down at the corner have water up to the slabs. I'm not sure how Festus and the other side of the neighborhood are doing.

To get from Perkins/Kennilworth to LAuberge, I am assuming Staring is best? Friends stranded in LAuberge lot with baby and cats.
