Of course, levees upstream make matters worse for those downstream, which is one of the reasons for the records.

The Ark can’t move because the Corps of Engineers had to shut the locks to rescue its big electrical equipment that would be ruined by flooding.
All of this is on its way to the Gulf where every more of the water will be polluted by the massive amounts of organics being flushed down the river.

Noah? Was he the fellow known for the vote count in the 2000 presidential election? I remember him… Noah Count!
That is an incredible amount of flooding. And only a few years ago I thought Tropical Storm Allison was bad… my heart goes out to those people, those flooded and those about to be flooded.

Personally, I’d probably say “Well, it’s about time!” LOL
