Anyone here in the path of Mississippi flooding?

Hope all here are not in the path of the flooding from the Mississippi river.

OK down here in the Baton Rouge area. Our levees are pretty high. Typically about 25 to 30 feet above the water surface and average about 35 - 40 yards from the waters edge. Maybe more. Expected to fill up but will be opening a spill way the runs in to a lake that connects with the Gulf of Mexico. First time in many years.
