Hope all your family and property are on high ground !!
The highest elevation is 44' above sea level. My home sits at 38' so we should be good. There is still more rain to come and there is many people with water in their homes. The last time the river got this high was in 1940. It was at 25' which is about seven feet higher than it is currently. Needless to say that the population in 1940 was about 5-10% the size as it is now.
Had to basically rescue my oldest daughter from her friends house this morning. People are stubborn down here. I offered to take the other girls and parents to our house but they stayed even though all of their neighbors homes were already flooded. We've got nearly 20' of rainfall in the last 36 hrs. Crazy...

Glad your okay buddy. I'd hate to overcome a loss like some will....
All our government does is distract us while they steal from us, misspend our tax $ and ruin our country
There is still a lot of people in need of rescue. Local sheriff office is handling everything on a case by case basis. They haven't asked for any volunteers. I'm trained in water rescue and familiar with my area. I'll be up at sunlight looking to help people. As for tonight, been a long day, when all else fails, cook a gumbo.

Huge bummer. Glad you're safe
Another member' home in Zachary is flooded too. lost his cars, bikes, tools... everything is under water. At least he, his family, and his animals are safe.
That's terrible. I'm 30 min from Zachary. I have family that's been stuck inside over there but no home damage yet I don't think.
There are people that's been stuck on the interstate since yesterday on little islands waiting to be rescued. On top of that all AT&T phone service is off.

I'm relieved to hear that your home is high enough to stay above water. Good luck, and be safe!

Sorry to see and hear this Jmoozy, prayers to you and your community. I see there is a disturbance out in the Atlantic forming that may become tropical, need to keep an eye on that for sure!!
