Incredible photo. The debris piled against the bridge is enormous too.
The engineers among us can provide the tech details, but all that water moving past the breached/ragged earth edges is just gonna make it worse as the day progresses.
Btw, someone else posted the original link to that pic.
I'd happily give 'em credit, but (typically) don't remember who and it was way upthread somewhere...
Notice the car on the bridge? Supose it is moving?
I assume the breech is above the bridge in the picture where the white top of the levee is missing?
Doesn't look like a 3000 pound sandbag is going to do anything to slow that gash down unfortunately.
