Don't Sweat The Storm

3/5/2020 (Permalink)

On February 16, the Pearl River reached a flood level it hasn’t risen to since the
1980’s. A state of emergency was issued by Mississippi Governor, Tate Reeves and
residents living in the low lying areas of the flood zone were asked to evacuate. Areas
that are expected to be affected from rising waters are parts of Northeast Jackson,
Eastover, Lakeland Dr., parts of Downtown Jackson, parts of Byram and parts of
Richland. Many of these areas along the river have already begun to take on water and
many houses and commercial properties will continue to take on water until the river
crest at 37.5-38 feet.
Once the river crest, it will take a few days for the water to fully reside to allow
our crews to get in the area to access the damage, but once the water does fully
recede, our team will begin working tirelessly to assist anyone who may be affected by
the flooding. If you or anyone you know will need assistance, please do not hesitate to
call us at 601-353-2286.
