Nightmare after nightmare. Hope everyone gets out of there, I really hope the officials are wrong and the locks hold up.

They're doing a reverse 911 since there's no time to go door-to-door.

wow, thats jacked up! the lower pearl has to be high water right now too so this water has no where to go but outward on to land.

Them high dollar locks , levees and flood gates are doing real good to keep the water out of the bowl. Guess it has to go somewhere?
