Don't Be Distracted : The Real Problem = Historic Mississippi Flood/Intentional Levee Breach

Hello ATS friends and especially those in the wake of the floods.
I was just reading that the historic mansions and fields will be
damaged by the floods. If they are to be damaged I can't imagine
the damage to be done to regular homes. I am thinking of you
and hope this comes to an end swiftly. It has already disturbed
so many lives and will take years to get back to the way it was.
Above all if they say evacuate please do so.

Your right the MSM is saying very little, I hope the local MSM
is bettter with the news that needs to get out to people.

It does appear the storms are starting to brew again, not
exactly what is needed right now.

Just found an article on Reuters

RPT-US floods boost gasoline prices, hit rice planting

Rising floodwaters on the Mississippi River have displaced thousands of residents and flooded 3 million acres of farmland as it surges past Memphis to the U.S. Gulf Coast, where it threatens to disrupt 10 oil refineries in Louisiana. ...

The refineries threatened by the flooding account for 14 percent of U.S. refined gasoline capacity. ...

The U.S. government prepared to open a second spillway in Louisiana to divert waters and ease flows at New Orleans and Baton Rouge. The action will interrupt crude oil shipments to one small refinery.

Grain, Rice, Oil... not good

Yep, higher food and gas prices. When we can't even afford it now,


I am sorry to all you out there who may not have a job or a home when all this is done, I can't imagine losing either one or both. Total devastation on top of the tough times we are going thru. My heart goes out to you,

I just hope it doesn't get worse,

Stock up people!

Even if you live nowhere near the flooded region...

This will effect food supplies everywhere!

Rich and Grain are staple floods for millions!

The prices will sky rocket...

1st... the availability of food due to these floods will cause supply and demand to jerk prices sky high

2nd Gas prices to deliver these goods from Point A to Point B will cause the food to increase in price!!

STOCK UP AHEAD OF TIME!

Not sure if this has been posted yet...

I heard on the News right before I fell asleep last night
that the area effected by this flood is the size of Italy...

I think it was the BBC?

Is that significant enough for ya?
A area the size of Italy...

I'm not your "Typical" Reverend...
So far I've only used my title to perform one wedding...
But I can perform any ceremony in any religion...

I pick Christianity as my home base

But I have various belief's
I believe once upon a time you might have said...
"Angels" or "Demons"
"Gods" etc...
I think the updated term would be Aliens...
I still believe in Jesus... Kool Kat from what I can tell

...But
You won't catch me in a church anytime soon...
I don't feel at ease in one... but thats an entire different story...


I checked out your link...
but it wouldnt load on my slow connection...


I hate to ask... but can someone screenshot it and post it?
pretty please

Ok, the radar circle on the map ;ast night disappeared around daylight this morning but are back tonight.
weather.unisys.com...

What does this mean? Appearing only in the night time... any thoughts?

The map around May 3rd or 4th posted here, I did not think to check daytime. I posted 29 hrs those circles were there, but what if they were only there in night time hours?

I don't know what the correlation would be. Any thoughts?

HAARP appears to be becoming active again though, 137.229.36.30... I like to use (left side of graph) 2 week plot and 1000 nT to see data output.

I'm going to post tomorrow on my observations and thoughts.. but I need to go to bed.

I don't like what is happening. Or maybe I've spent too much time on ATS. Or both.

reply to post by Nekbet


good night... sleep well..

As long as there is a flood to update on...
you can probably bet the hard working posters here will keep us updated!

Very interesting thread BTW, I've been reading here, I'm from Louisiana.

Hey Thanks!!!!!!

You did it right!!!!

Those clouds are impressive!!

Its like 2 big giant spirals... and one that half formed in the center...

I've seen "spiral" clouds before but those 2 are interesting to say the least...

We had a heck of a storm dodge us (hit about 10 miles north of me) around 9pm Eastern...

It produced baseball-softball sized hail and did a lot of damage!!!



but according to local weather channel... there is no clouds whatso ever in KY at the moment... and at 11pm the storm from earlier had already made its way into Virginia

But that map says there should be clouds?

I can actually see stars... So whats up with that map?

Odd totally odd



BTW... Mass Effect is one of my favorite game series of all time!!! I don't game too much, too poor lol...
But i eagerly await ME3!


and I hope your in the dry part of Louisiana... is there a dry part?
Best of luck and prayers and positive vibes to you friend
