Whole lotta a rain here as well. Still have tonight and tomorrow before it looks like a break. We're in no danger on the mountain (aside from trees falling in the soaked ground) but the valley's are catching the rain plus the run off.....TVA has been about as great as a gov agency can be in what they've accomplished. Dams are saving a whole lot of property right now. Of course they are run like a corporation so that makes a difference in how efficient they are.
Hope it stops well short of y'all Scott.

Every creek and every river between the Atlantic Ocean and central Arkansas is full or flooded. I have never seen anything like this, as we have more rain coming. Best wishes to you all in flood threatened areas.

We've gotten 4.7" in the last 2 days. That's not a whole lot, considering the scope of things, but it doesn't help anyone south of us either. The water that falls here, goes into the Ouachita that feeds the Black, and the Black runs into the Red, just above the Old River Structure.

I wish you folks would quit hogging the water! But, seriously - prayers, best wishes, and an admonition to be safe - to all of you!

Spring is not here yet. That is when Arkansas gets a lot of rain. Sand bag up and get ready. Good luck.

Best of luck Scott...hope your family and property stay safe and miss all the potential destruction...
lotta potential here, but I think we will be okay unless it turns for the worst...

Lots of stories so far, but so far, so good.
A whole bunch of people running around in boats trying to find a barking dog in the flooded stuff. They got him.

I'm sure I don't need to tell you to be careful man, but with only one path of egress, please watch that route closely so you don't get trapped sir. I hope you have all your valuable stuff in the lower levels of the house and other buildings up a level or two and secured. Looks like a rough few days ahead of you. Be careful.
