Yes, I was wondering, could you give me information on a street to see if it was flooded out yet?
What's the street?
It's South 17th Street behind the Kmart.
That I have no idea.
All I know is that there are a lot of streets that do have water on them, and the water
is at times rising quickly, so if you do find an area where there's water, I would not drive
through it.
Okay, well I was calling, I have friends out of the state and they live down there, but
they don't know what's going on.
Okay, no, right now we're asking for a voluntary evacuation of the entire city.
Okay, thank you very much.
