Are we sure that pesky tropical storm didn’t hit today, because it sure seems that way? Street flooding has been reported throughout the city, with the CBD, Canal Street, Treme, Gentilly, and Mid-City seeming to take the brute force of it all. Pictures and videos from social media are showing the city taking on some water in various sections of neighborhoods. See posts from this morning’s early thunderstorms below. WDSU is reporting that over 60 streets are currently flooded in the city. This post will be updated as more information on street flooding becomes available.
Construction workers tell me they were working at LSU Health near S. Galvez & Perdido Street, when the flooding started. Water is surrounding multiple workers’ cars. Many of them are wading through the water, trying to get their cars out of the flood zone. @WWLTV pic.twitter.com/IYWBKhKxXw

The 🌧 has stopped in #Nola Lakeview, but water is not draining yet. This is between Filmore Avenue and Robert E. Lee Blvd. at 9:00am. @SWBNewOrleans says all pumps and drainage systems working. @wdsu pic.twitter.com/XZtZPLpnuS
