I was just saying to my wife, watch this storm drop rain up the Mississippi valley. Causing flood concerns for days and it all ends up back near NOLA.

Only blessing is the lack of rain in the mid states will help absorb the initial rain fall.

Quite the opposite actually. Dry ground doesn't soak up water as fast as moist ground. It's like when you put a dry rag under the faucet. It beads up at first. Deserts are the same...flash floods happen at super speed in the desert. Initially, it will be very bad if they don't get some light rain to dampen things up before hand.

My best friend lives near Lake Maurepas & hasn't had any water in his house until this morning at around 6AM when it started to creep under the door... I spoke with him about an hour & a half ago & they had 4 inches in the lower level and rising fast.

It would affect a rural or suburban area, not a city, is that right?

Thanks. His little boy's bedroom ceiling upstairs just collapsed from an until-now-unknown leak... so they're trying to save everything they can & are moving asap.
