In that photo the lake is to the north, the river is to the south. The section that is being flooded, Arabi, has been flooded for at least 33 hours, and had the water up to the rooftops for almost that long. Reports
for 30 hours have been that the there was an overtopping from the Mississippi River that was flooding this section of Arabi, including reports from the mayor's office and the Army Corp of Engineers.

If what you are saying is true, the Lake is "up" the river "down", then the flooded neighborhood has breached the seawall and water from the neighborhood is flowing into the canal. I have the image up full screen on the PC ext to this one and I am at least 80% sure that the water is flowing right to left in that image.
Nope, 100%, the whitewater is to the left of obstructions and the area to the right of the seawall is full to the top of the wall.
If all the above is true, your post and mine, all I can figure is that the river is draining into the parish, and the parish is flowing into the canal.
But the river is not up to the levee is it?
I don't know anything anymore other than NO seems lost to me.
