The 20" of rain isn't nearly as scary as the 11 foot storm surge that is possible.

The 20" of rain isn't nearly as scary as the 11 foot storm surge that is possible.
- dredmorbius 5y agoA storm dumping rain over the Mississippi drainage for 3--4 days is somewhat more fearsome than 20" in one spot for a few hours. All of that flows out through the Mississippi. I'm not saying it's worse than the storm surge. But it's going to be affecting the city for much longer. (As well as multiple locatons upstream.)
