    The Suwanee has now crested at Dowling park, a good foot lower than expected. Luraville is almost at crest. They are now predicting Branford to crest a little higher than the 1986 flood, and a good bit lower than the 1973, as predicted last week.

    But here come the rains again.

    We may get another round of flooding: like the two floods of 2004.

    I am in Moultrie, Ga - an hour NE of Tallahassee and 45 minutes NW of Valdosta. We have had a good bit of rain since lunch. I am guessing some of this will find its way to the Withlacoochee and the Suwannee. Hopefully the levels will be down some by the time this latest rain gets to N Florida.

    Safe diving,

    Well it has been raining here in Lowndes County Ga. for a few hours now and at my house I have gotten a little over 4"s of rain other parts of the county are supposed to get up to six inches of rain.

    Took a trip up to see Little River today, never saw it because the road to get there has a few rivers running through it. The Suwannee is really high in Branford as well.

    We got 4" of rain yesterday. I don't think it will raise the river levels,just prolong the flood.

    floods are now extending north almost to 168th st, I tried to take the shortcut to 168 today but I had to back up almost a mile... now that was fun....

    anyhow... had to return to Miami and keep fingers crossed,

    We may make a quick run up this weekend just to check things out.

    Thanks for the Little River photos

    Glad you didn't stall out in the water
    when you went through it.

    See she is way out of her banks,
