Co-workers daughters at Delta State said there is flooding in Cleveland. Water up to their front door and when a car drives down the flooded street it pushes a wave of water that goes under the door into the house.

Big question is what is all this going to do to Steele Bayou with the Big River headed up north of 40' and no stopping in sight and with the gates already closed at Steele Bayou. That water level could rise quick fast and in a hurry!!

A friend at Lake Chicot just sent me a pic of a large gator, camped out on their boat dock....must be running them outta hibernation.

I've poured 10" out of my gauge. So far, it hasn't gotten in any homes on my street. Did get some water in the storage shed. Dog was an inch or two away from having a wet bed.

My neighborhood had to be evacuated yesterday. Got a boat and got my wife out. Had 4-5" in the house when we left and the Sunflower River is still rising. No telling how deep it is now. Swift current going through my neighborhood. It's all surreal to me as I sit here not able to sleep this morning. It has completely messed with my head like I didn't think anything could. Gonna try to go back this morning and get some more stuff out with the boat.
