I'm near Lake Charles, and we were pretty lucky for the most part around here. We got incredible amounts of rain when the bands hit us, then a pause to let it drain off, rinse, repeat. Areas near rivers and bayous had it worst, with most of them overflowing their banks and spreading out to engulf nearby houses. The drainage system in Lake Charles was at its max capacity.

I got out to ride last Saturday before the rain hit, and the first chance I had to ride again was yesterday afternoon. I had to modify my normal route due to one bridge still being underwater, with the approaches about 2-3 feet under. It's an inconvenience for me. It's much more for the folks who lost their houses.
