Just looked at my rain gauge....a lil over 3.75". Poplarville, MS (20 mi to the east) and Columbia (30 mi to the north) have both gotten over 16" since 4:00 this morning. We have managed to stay in that void between them and the northshore of the lake. And, I am thankful for that.

Looks like Lafayette is gettin' pounded right now.

And you may not get much more because of such a slow movement. Anybody in the Baton Rouge area...it's a'comin'. It's been hammerin' here at the rate of almost 2" per hour and we got more to the east. We'll be close to 15" by mornin'. :eek:

Big Flounder 08-29-2012 09:41 PM

Just woke up and I will never talk bad about Demco again. I still have power! Knock on wood.

Went to LaPlace to get my fiancé parents out of a flooded house . Let me tell you I have never seen anything like what I saw today. When we got there we couldn't find a safe place to launch the boat so 2 go devils offered to take us to the house , jumped in and koris brother went to the house while me and another guy rescued people and brought them to national guard trucks, had one guy lie n say we were going to get a handicapped person but he came out of the house with a pit bull .... Pissed .... Got him and his dog in safe , got another family with 2 small kids . At this time say the boat with my brother in law and they had my in laws!! They went back to the truck I stayed out helping a few more people untill it got dark and cold because I gave my rain gear to a little kid . Back in BR now and we still freakin have power !!! Just got everyone fed. I'll post some pics n videos in a bit
