2 hours later, it dropped 4 inches. Ascension Parish drainage sucks.

CajunSaint 09-03-2011 05:55 PM

Damn dude that's your yard???

Raymond 09-03-2011 06:13 PM

Blown rain knocked the siding off my chimney and water coming n house!!!!!!!!

Ray 09-03-2011 06:17 PM

My dad got 2.5 inches of rain today by 4 pm. SW Lake Charles.

Marshrat 09-03-2011 07:08 PM

I don't have a rain gauge but I am guessing we got about 4" or better today here near Lake Arthur.

My rain gauge is right at 4inchs since it started...

Here in Jennings.....My dads cousin said they are over 6inchs at Cyp point

LPfishnTIM 09-03-2011 07:12 PM

I think every drainage system in baton rouge and livingston is getting put to the test!

Dink 09-03-2011 07:24 PM

We're getting it slow and steady in laffy

That sucks, I can help you put the siding back up Monday after the adjuster has a look at it. ;)

Seriously, if you need some help Monday let me know. I'm working tonight and tomorrow night.

Neighbors yard. They have a culvert running under the road. That culvert drains the subdivision that is 3 acres wide by 50 acres deep. It backs up into our yard when the culvert gets plugged up by branches and trash and we get 3+ feet of water in the ditch and 1-2 backed up into our yard. I'll see if I can find some more pics of my yard. I snapped this 3 hours after it stopped raining though at my house. Good thing this system has a light but steay rain. None of this drains directly into the bayou which is less than 100 yards away. It goes under the road and makes a ditch-canal that is way too small.

If you look in my neighbors yard, you will see just barely the top of the fire hydrant.

iron man 09-03-2011 09:38 PM

The last one is the ditch. There was about a foot and half of water I had to crawl through in my truck to take that pic. I'll have to wait till tomorrow to get more. It was rediculous when Rita hit us. There was water going over the road in the subdivision.

Mediumheavyaction6'6 09-03-2011 09:41 PM

Yeah I'm sure your ditch crawling was much worse than all of a Calcasieu and Cameron Parish losing most of what they own.

Looking at the radar during the day looks like that area got several inches of rain.

Ray 09-03-2011 09:56 PM

slambin 09-03-2011 10:24 PM

In Klondike at one of my locations the rain gauge is showing 5" so far.

southern151 09-04-2011 08:13 AM

Dad lives in Geismar and said his gauge holds 5" and was overflowing yesterday afternoon. It was back to 1.5" by sundown yesterday.

Montauk17 09-04-2011 12:46 PM

Looks like the rain is over with,time to go fishing!

Gerald 09-05-2011 12:11 AM

I have had 6.5" total here at the house, and it was raining some more about an hour ago.

Out side today.....the ground hardly looked like it had rained.

Salty 09-05-2011 12:17 AM

I emptied 4" Saturday morning. My wife emptied it before dark last night and said it read almost 7". The ground is wet here but ain't much water standing.

Dink 09-05-2011 01:08 AM

Finally getting some real weather over here! Lots of branches falling on the house right now

huntin fool 09-05-2011 08:42 AM

Purty weather today!!

Gerald 09-05-2011 11:05 AM

Makes me want to head to the woods.

all star rod 09-05-2011 11:11 AM

Montauk17 09-05-2011 11:18 AM

Micah 09-05-2011 12:31 PM

Walked out the house this morning for work to overcast skies and a stiff north wind......felt like duck season.
