Go search Juban Crossing on Facebook (you can do a blanket search for recent posts where places were tagged).

Looks like it is mostly under 2-3' of water.

Looking for some help. My mother in law and son are off of 16 right across the street from greys creek elementary. Last I spoke to them was last night and they were high and dry. Anyone know if that area is still good?


Have family in exactly the same spot. One had 2 inches of water in house late last night. Haven't heard from anyone since about midnight.

Bayou Fountain runs next to University Villas on Burbank between Staring and Lee.
Does anyone have any updates as to the condition of the water in that area. Is it rising?

I can confirm that backflowing has been hitting Coursey/Sherwood for about 2 hours now. It began late last night but has been rising at a slow but steady pace for two hours.

Jones Creek has NOT crested yet - there are active flooding situations still occuring downstream (now upstream with backflow) of you, with increasing water levels.

Seriously?

Keep us updated. That would mean Bayou Fountain is currently backflowing.


Very... there is a canal that runs from the back of the lakes under Highland down to Bayou Fountain (red arrow)

I took this photo yesterday at 5:30pm in university villas. Those steps go right up to someone's yard. Water is about 3' vertically from flooding their yard in that pic.

Buddy who lives in the neighborhood just texted me that water is now about 4 inches above the second set of bricks.

Can confirm backflow occurring on Ward Creek Diversion that crosses BF Rd. Water is rising and flowing north now.

Hey everyone I have family in New Orleans, Old Metairie and downtown CBD, what is the status at
these locations?
No one is picking up their phone.
