Web Cams at New Orleans

Just a side note.In the Last Two weeks 4 tows have went aground at Mile Marker 819 on the upper Miss.Even with the High Water it seems the Channel has narrowed and when these Tows go aground it blocks the Channel.Looks like that will be a problem area this spring.

When the river overflows the banks, the current slows down, and the silt settles to the bottom. If a barge goes aground the silt just keeps building up around the barge. Down around the Head of the Passes this becomes a big problem because the channel changes day by day. The Corps publishes new surveys daily and I imagine they have all available dredges working the passes at this time.

Case80, did you click on the white arrow (>) in the center of the picture? Do this and the picture turns to the live river cam shot. I was just on the site and it worked fine.
