Gulf Coast Still Sees Showers and Flood Operations
Heavy rains and thundershowers plague the Gulf Coast into the Mississippi Valley forcing emergency actions. Engineers open Bonnet Carre spillway to divert Mississippi River floodwaters around New Orleans toward the Gulf of Mexico for about ten days. Spillway work aims to ease the New Orleans crest as rivers rise with spring runoff and snowmelt. Weather service forecasts crest figures and widespread rain across the region, with mild to cold temperatures elsewhere. Regular weather notes list temperatures across numerous cities and a separate San Francisco police incident misread as a holdup when officers entered a bar.
