We left there Friday morning after flood warnings started popping up on my phone all around us.. We were there on vacation and it was our last day anyway.. We were at the Park downtown New Orleans when I got the warnings, and then it started dumping.. Water was standing all along HWY 10 on our way out of there..

They just reported a Low has developed

2-Day Graphical Tropical Weather Outlook

No, linkie...so I'm stinkie...but I just heard many stores in the area (that aren't flooded) are running out of food. This is due to distribution channels being flooded. Even when the waters recede, it could be ugly for a few days.

WAFB had a video of the College Drive Walmart with a line out the door.

They also interviewed someone from a shelter and asked what was needed. Basically both the anchor and the person being interviewed suggested that it might be difficult to buy supplies to donate.

over 1000 flooding claims put in as of noon today.


waiting for a deluge of more.

SCALAR WEAPONS AND OTHER WEATHER WARFARE TECHNOLOGIES ARE IN USE AND ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR FLOODING IN MISSISSIPPI AND LOUISIANA-WEATHER WARFARE EXPERT GIVES HIS TAKE ON IT

Have been watching the wx system development in the gulf, the big one that has been sitting again off the coast,
Becoming more and more powerful day after day even though dumping huge amounts of water on the land. It once
Again is being fed by the intense energy spot off the coast, the same that in the past has created huge moisture
Events, but this one is much longer lasting and actually behaving like a “black hole”, drawing energy from as far
Away as 500 miles, sucking it from other systems to itself, now after many days it at first drew the life from an
Approaching west to east system, then it reformed it by exporting some of its energy to that system causing now a
Very long train of moisture, slow moving to also dump on a bigger area. I said black hole, because it is feeding
Itself not only from the original energy source but also causing other to be drawn to it, a real monster and strange.
Any thoughts on this. If this were occurring in winter it would be creating a very bad heavy snowstorm, or maybe
This is a “test” for same. As said this is getting huge amounts of vapor coming out of the sea at that spot to feed it,
But now is also drawing energy to itself in order to expand its influence to a long “train” of heavy precipitation.
This time it is not dissipating, but becoming more powerful while “sitting in place”. Weatherwatcher. Jesus is Lord.

I wonder how many people that are preppers there who had food storage (and other items acquired over the years) have lost it due to flood water damage or contamination? Also, I am sure that the rest of the country will rally to help with donations once they can get through with trucks.(that said the past two weeks we have not been able to find our fave brand of bottled water at Sam's Club which I found very odd) But that doesn't help those who need food and especially water right now. I pray that the Lord will be with them. Also earlier I saw on facebook about a desperate pet owner wanting someone to go to her house and break a window if necessary to rescue her two dogs (labs) that are in crates inside her home. I can't stop thinking about that and worrying for them! Yes, I know that some people are trapped, too, but the plight of innocent animals just touches my heart so much.

I'm expecting a Day After Tomorrow-type Superstorm this winter, too. Record Low temps all the way into N.Mexico with huge casualties. Can't let all those FEMA camps and body bags & caskets go to waste.

So much!!! My god that man ripped that woman out of that car - she was a minute from death and he got in that nasty water and risked himself to save a stranger and then went under that water to find her dog!!

May god bless these heroes!!!!

This is what restores my faith in humanity....especially after givemedat from Milwaukee, Ferguson, etc.

At this point I would not put anything past the criminals in charge.

Move to a more prosperous area? Like Seattle? Median house value in Seattle is $585,400. But Seattle is booming, King County is booming.

I work with many people from the Denham area. The ones I work with are salt of the earth people. They take care of themselves and those in their community who need help and are deserving. They are prepper types as well. Not from a sense of TSHTF type scenario, but just because that is what country people do. They probably did lose a lot of their supplies.

The plight of the animals is heartbreaking. The memories of Katrina are still pretty vivid for most. I thought that they would have worked out the issues with pet rescues. I saw an article or something where the legislature was asked to take up this issue. Not sure if our elected officials did anything though.

And God Bless the "Cajun Navy" too - did you see that picture with the long line of people pulling their own boats down there to help!!! Fisherman boaters a line as far as could see - on their OWN DIME not turning away but responding to people in need!! Just everyday people.

GOD BLESS THE HELPERS!!!

Hey guys,

Thursday (8/16) right before the storm hit. A very large military convoy was rolling in on a train through Baton Rouge. Same vehicles being used to extract people now.
I was on Acadian near I-10. Railroad rides across acadian along the interstate.

Hope this information is useful. I'd like to know more about this storm.
Never imagined anything like this in my life. My entire family lost everything and stuck on a island. The National Guard will not let them leave. And I've lost count on how many friends lost their homes. We are sheltering some friends now who were air lifted by a black hawk!

90% of Denham Springs has been effected.

I left that area in 91 after a 2 year stint of trying it out - it was an absolute mess at traffic time way back then - I can't even imagine it now.
Also that kind of weather you have to grow up in it - it will just kill a Southern Sunshine person - believe me I know - I moved there from the Sunshine State and moved right back after 2 years of rain and traffic (with a few weeks sporadically of enjoying the most beautiful place my eyes could behold because it is beautiful out there) but my god the fucking rain.

This is interesting information. I admit, I don't watch the local news/weather stations very closely, but I don't think we were given much notice. A convoy of military coming in on Thursday evening would be very telling.

I'm telling you - this is Katrina 2.0, same weather modification technology, minus the hurricane.
Another GLPer called it last week.

VIDEO: Louisiana Sheriff Personally Saves a Family from Flooded Home

Meant to say Thursday (8/11)

sorry!!!

Just talked to my son. He helped out at a local church today. They put out an email blast that they needed water for people in French Settlement. Received something like 10,000 bottles.

Also his girlfriend helped out at the River center. She said the greatest need was baby food and formula. From what she saw, they were well supplied otherwise.

Close to 5,000 people staying in Baton Rouge shelters, many with pets, as volunteers try to lift spirits

Amid the cots, canines and cats that cluttered a sound stage Monday at Celtic Media Centre, Sondra Honore's family stood out.

Their green turtle, Zeus, was perhaps the most unique pet among the thousands of people and animals who lodged Sunday night and into Monday at a movie production facility that has held the likes of Tom Cruise and Jessica Alba shooting blockbusters. She laughed at the way people reacted to Zeus crawling along her cot if only to keep from crying about floods that destroyed the home she bought in 2012 after scrimping for years.

Honore was one of 4,857 people staying in shelters Monday in Baton Rouge, the Department of Children and Family Services counted. More than 30 shelters have been set up over the region but the largest on Monday in Baton Rouge were at Celtic, the Baton Rouge River Center and Southern University.

Those staying at the shelters said they were amazed at the kindness of the strangers who showed up in droves with blankets, snacks, games, animal crates and cheery attitudes. As Honore and her family recounted the story of multiple houses and cars flooding, volunteers brought them peanut butter and jelly sandwiches, dog treats, water, Powerade and board games within the span of half an hour.

yep - that is the deal

a complete area - the area I grew up in

completely flooded - some to the house top

today people are trying to eat and most are living
with friends and family that have a dry home.

the water has not gone completely down yet

So I guess "climate change" has been with us for a while.

However I don't recall having been taxed for it back then.
