Anyone in the avalon neighborhood off Millerville
I know the woodlands right behind it is completely flooded.
Water up to the roof.
There are people that were stuck in their attics because they didn't get out because they didn't want to leave their cats.
PSA:
If you have a bunch of animals you are severely limiting who can take you in. People don't have the resources to feed your family AND your 5 pets.

tiger bend is flooded bad.
Tiger Bend, Elliot, etc. are one of the worst areas to build.
If you drive around that area, you see old-arse houses built on stilts like a camp. It was done for a reason, but no one has seen flooding like this since 1983, so no one thought it was an issue to build there.

Jesus. Thanks for that little bit of reality (?)/prognostication.
I think I just made a doody in my pants.

which part of sherwood forest?
Posted on 8/14/16 at 10:19 am to supernovasky
Kimbleton ave, right along claycut bayou, is completely flooded over and rising. The street is covered. Not exactly shocking but that's the best report I can give.

I have been watching this on the news for the past couple of days. My prayers go out to you and I hope you and yours get through this with as little loss as possible. God Bless You!

Looks like you could go south on 43 to 190 but you won't know till you try it

So if anyone has reports from this area please tell us.
A little south of that outline but this is highland club if you missed it. This is from claycut backflow
Good to know.
So this is the relevant graphic:

You can see that the Highland Club is one of the first places that would experience serious backflow from Clay cut.
We can be sure that whenever that picture was taken, it SHOULD be increasing:

This is actually an upstream gauge (Currently downstream with backflow) so I have to imagine that area is getting it bad. I would expect, therefore, Clay Cut to be actively rising and flooding.

westhaven. springhill/fairhill is fine a lot has to happen to get that area flooded. watch the summerwoood/westhaven subdivisions
I didn't ride through Westhaven, which is next door to and east of Summerwood. There must be something unique about it. I don't think it's just because it's slightly upstream to Summerwood.

As for the Bayou Fountain/Ward Creek system, it is already getting high at the Mancac Point.
Great post and thanks for the update. I am on a canal that drains to Bayou Fountain and I can confirm that the water has started coming up after falling last night. The backyard dips down pretty steeply to the canal but water is almost up to where the backyard flattens out up to the house.

That picture was taken at around 6am

I read on the Facebook page that they are turning away people with boats at this point. Anyone know if this is true or who to contact to find out?

28.073 feet is someone's house i know near santa maria. what's the number over there it's supposed to get to? 21.5?
21.5 is the prediction for Bayou Manchac at Amite.
At 28 near Santa Maria, they should be ok, IMO.
