Thanks for your concern, I can only speak for myself. I'm in southeast LA.
We are ok. We only had 9" of rain.
The folks in south central LA didn't fare so well. I have posted some
videos on my Face Book page.
https://www.facebook.com/dmudge1 Denham Springs (just east of Baton Rouge)
had 24" of rain in less than 24 hours.
One rural town who's name I don't remember got 30+" I think that it was a
new world record. Over 20,000 people have had to evacuate.
Remember when watching the videos that all this water is the result of
rain, not a hurricane or a levee breach. Just rain.
