I just received an update from the Corp in Vicksburg. As of yesterday, prediction for Larto crest is 48-49’.
Thank you so much. I appreciate your help in getting information. I will continue to check back. Several Trailers have been hauled out today and I saw the truck with road barricades go by this morning. I imagine road to the dam has been closed. Thanks again.
Is there some way to get those updates?Quote:
