    Water is completely off the flood wall. Preparing for a second crest just as high as the last one so we will see. We have been adding some sandbags on top of the ground behind the dike to hold back the pressure from the ground from coming up.

    Also, We put plastic covering the ground out about 10 ft from the wall. Were hoping this will cut back on some of the pressure from coming through the ground, up under the planters and behind the wall.

            Wait a second...you said it wasn't going to be anywhere near the first crest...i thought you were the flood genius on these forums that knew everything about flooding and the second one wasn't going to be even close to the first....:stirpot:

                      so what if the weather serviced put the 2nd crest at 36-38 feet and then it say it crests at 39 feet...would people give them more shit for that or for having a higher projected crest in the begining and it crests lower?
