| 摘要： | Over the last 30 days, the communities along Bayou Sorrel and the Port Allen Alternate Route of the Gulf Intra-coastal Waterway (GIWW) have seen an astounding amount of rainfall on that narrow strip of land, bounded on one side by the Mississippi River levee and on the other by the Morganza Floodway's eastern levee. In just the past month, the entire area has seen in excess of 15 inches of rain, with large pockets receiving more than 20 inches of rainfall, according to the National Weather Service. Extend that to the past 60 days, and much of the same area has received in excess of 30 inches of rain. That huge amount of rain-with almost nowhere to drain-has sent water levels in Bayou Sorrel, and the entire Alternate Route above Bayou Sorrel Lock, shooting up. They've remained high for much of the months of April and May. |
