That is true for the eastern portion of Youngsville. Most of the southern portion of Youngsville and youngsville itself drains to the Parc Per Du. Only about 10% or 15% of what we call Youngville drains to the Vermilion River (if that much).

I'm between Milton & Youngsville (Youngsville address) and I think all the coulee's near me head to the Vermilion.

FYI- Opening today is what I heard.

Oh please no more disasters.....going have people jumping off the levees.

The Mississippi river is in moderate flood stage and has been for a few days. Noting to get worried about. Looking like a crest on April 10 with gradual drop after that. No big deal.

Snow pack up north and rain totals down river are nowhere near where they were this time last year.

LA has been spared one more year, but know this..... It WILL happen.

Only Ole Man River knows the date.
