Just got report on weather radio about flooding. Sounds pretty bad on the river. Camps on Arkansas and Tennessee side flood from above Covington TM all the way to below tunica. Said parking lot at Charlie's camp on tunica wa under water. Listed sever roads that were closed hindering evacuations in some of those areas. Lots of field flooding on Arkansas side. Not going to crest until March 3rd. Going to be a rough next couple of weeks for a lot of folks. Hope Rebranger is not affected.
Wow, its got me shut down, Big change from last Feb.
Debbie just got a flood warning on her phone from Desoto county sheriff's department. Holly Springs rd at Coldwater river closed with 4 others in the area.
Getting a lot of rain up here.I just ordered a book Ark building for dummies.
None of the big 4 have a discharge at this time.
Having to go move my truck and 4 wheelers at my camp. She’s a rising quick

They have a lot of capacity to hold water still.....doing exactly what they were built for....despite fishermen that complain about the water levels all the time.

I am on my riverboat right now and can confirm that the big river is screaming! We are getting nav reports by the hour regarding high and rising water levels. Should be a quick trip down from Cairo to Baton Rouge. Got 900' of steel in front of me this trip. Natchez, Memphis, and Vicksburg bridges are going to be a puckered up ride! I may just close my eyes for the upper Baton Rouge bridge. May end up coming through that one sideways with all this current.

Be careful. Coming around that curve before the BR bridge is going to be dangerous. Keep us posted. The TN river is roaring up here in Savannah. Some minor flooding and road closures already.
You certainly know that stretch of the river. Both Thomas and Wilkins point will be a hard set I imagine. From Devils Swamp down to the bridge will need a great degree of focus. I’m banking on wrapping Wilkins Point up tight staying hard over to port and trying to shoot the Port Allen span of the bridge in the little bit of slack water left under the point. If the eddy hasn’t formed there. Otherwise its hard astern flanking the bend and hopefully an assist boat standing by to shoot the center span. Anyone who gets down in the bend on the BR side like we would normally run it won’t recover.

Only been in the river there once. But drove over that bridge thousands of times. Lived in the cane fields of Port Allen and worked in the Exxon plant. Always amazed at the loads going through there this time of year and conditions.
Not too bad yet. Just have to do the Ol Trailer move from Fish Camp. It's getting to be an every year thing nowadays!Quote:
