Here off of 1085 this morning near Goodbee, I-12 and Bedico Creek. Several flooded streets and homes taking in water over night. Many people stuck where they are or trying to get home or to work. Be safe and remember, Turn Around! Don’t Drown! #Flooding @FOX8NOLA pic.twitter.com/MSLGiWnz2y

More video at first light from Goodbee area on the North Shore! Small crowds of people using the McDonalds parking lot as a hub since they either can’t get to work or back to their homes. State Trooper on scene directing some to turn around. @FOX8NOLA pic.twitter.com/2sow3M8M9F

WX UPDATE: In Covington, the Archbishop Hannan High School parking lot is flooded from overnight storms. There’s a dip to get into the parking lot which contributed to the flooding. I’m not sure if the school building took on any water. From here it looks like a lake. @WWLTV pic.twitter.com/WQMrviqaAb
