Some flooding around here, but the southern half of Indiana is really bad they say.

3dkicker we arent yet but Dryriver(wich is 1/2 mile from my house) is nearly out of its banks. I expect if the wet stuff keeps up tonight it will be out tomorrow.

This is all of the snow and rain from Keiths area coming down on us , then add our own inches of rain into the mix and this is what its like where I live every year...

dang cmorg. ya'll be careful man. this makes me ask a question. WHY USE DIRT WHEN WE HAVE CONCRETE?

CMorg · 03-10-11, 10:25 PM

I think in certain areas concrete may be the answer. However , I am not a hydro man , and as far as I know this falls under the Army Corps of Engineers. I couldnt imagine how much concrete it would take to make levees on both the East fork , and West fork of the White River system. They each run over half the state until they come together about 70 miles north of Kentucky.

bamabassman · 03-10-11, 10:30 PM

ok....that explains it then. too much money for concrete for that distance. this is why the levees in new orleans were put back to what they were too. they were first built for cat 3 hurricaine, and replaced to the same. too much money. lives are not worth the extra dollars to fix it right. sorry, had to vent that out.
