Fwiw, the "area" is currently forecast to be Texas/Mexico border.
Yeah the system is supposed to become more stationary over the next few days but then what after that? Unless it goes completely into Mexico & westward into the Pacific, it could still be a problem. The system itself or it's remnants doesn't have to pass over Louisiana to bring problems to an already high river. A track through Texas then to the northeast cutting across the lower Mississippi River Valley is not something we need right now.

shite I didn’t even think about where its eventual track would take it after “landfall” but you’re probably right in where its remnants go. Although by then the river levels may have started to go down enough to be able to handle the swell that would come a week or two later.
We’ll see. This system may not even materialize in the first place and we may not have to ever deal with it.

The remnants of Allison meandered and lingered for days, allowing a slow-moving rainband associated with it to flare up and unleash epic amounts of rainfall in the Houston metro area, resulting in severe flooding.
Allison not only impacted Houston with rain, but it also dumped a large amount in Southeast Louisiana. I remember because a building on Nicholls’s campus flooded and caused other problems.

Oh I remember. There were several parts of Thibodaux flooded from Allison. I had some family members who had water in their homes.

frick. That.
The storm was predicted to arrive Thursday evening. People planned to evacuate in the morning. But, the storm intensified and accelerated overnight, pushing its storm surge inland before dawn, trapping everyone down there.
My grandparents and my aunt went through it and survived. My dad hitchhiked home from LSU to help recover bodies.

My Grandfather wss a life insurance agent. He went to Cameron to visit policy holders and what he saw stayed with him forever....he said people had tied their children to themselves when the water started coming up and they kept finding these clusters of families all drowned together. Saw drowned Nuns with kids tied to them as well....Dead bodies and dead animals everywhere. He had seen a lot in his life, but that REALLY disturbed and stayed with him his whole life...

Dead bodies and dead animals everywhere
The cries of those nutria sounding like children must have been a special kind of hell.
