Buddy lives over there, but is being unclear as to how high its getting. Seems like a slow rise, might go over there to help him

I'm in Briarwood. The big pond in the subdivision drains to ward creek. I've been watching the water all day. It's risen very very little since this morning.
The big drainage area between briarwood and woodridge hasn't moved either, which is connected to the pond.
I checked it about 15 minutes ago and it looked near the same as it did about two hours ago.

What about Geismar/Dutchtown area off 74?


Went to harvest earlier. Water wasn't too high over the roads. Not sure how the neighborhoods off it are

Just got done bagging sand for my dad's. He's behind the shell across from LeBlanc's on 42 on a little private road, water to the slab. Made a loop around 929 and Parker (we live in Ronda place). Ronda place, bon lieu, the oaks, and from what I can tell shadows of ascension are all still fine. Gonna be a long night.

Yeah those maps have been very close. Some areas are a little off but they have been a great indicator

Do you have to any idea about the Burnside/Gonzales area West of Airline/I-10.

All I could find was a suggestion that backwater was going to work its way up the Panama/Conway waterways.
Nothing too specific but that HwY 22 was going to get it.


I do not. My attention has been solely on EBR.

Last check in it was holding steady. Not rising, not falling.

Some houses have water.

You're right. They've got it perfect down to the street in my subdivision.

I was thinking of your parents Nurse when I posted it. I could feel your pain & concern about them in your posts so I was hoping this would help ease their worries (and others) a little.

Good Luck to all.

Basically all the areas shaded blue has been the path the water has taken and sounds like it is heading to now.
