From the radar this morning it looks like the whole state of Mississippi is seeing heavy rain. I'm glad that New Orleans didn't take as much of a hit as some were expecting, but remain very concerned about the flood stage of the Mississippi river in the coming days and weeks. It will take time for all the rainfall to make its way through the tributaries and into the river, and it won't take much of a rise to radically impact riverside communities that have already seen flooding almost all year. Let's all hope that the potential for river flooding stays unmet just like the potential impact on New Orleans.
I'm reading some of the TWC coverage on Barry and they're reporting that an area near Cookeville received 6.09 inches already. It looks like any flooding issues will be localized for most of Tennessee but as others on the board have been saying the people that do get caught by a heavy or training rain band will really get lots of water in a short period of time.
