Mississippi Flooding

       The Mississippi River continues to rush downstream, The flood-level water is heading directly for some of the Louisanna communities still recovering from last year's oil spill and possibly forcing hundreds of thousands of people to evacuate. It was has reached 47.85 feet, Officials said the river is expected to crest at a record level there on May 21. The river will continue to press against Memphis levees for at least the next few days. Some homes have been inundated and are likely uninhabitable.
       Everyone that lives around or close to the river should evacuate there houses, take what they need before there house is destroyed. It could kill them if they stay the Rivers only getting larger and flooding more. What scientist are predicting doesn't sound to good. So I think people should better be safe then sorry.
