Any boat ramps still available to use or they all under water?? Praying for no levee breaks and hope all is ok for everyone!!

You can still get in some ramps. There is a place not far from tiptonville called sheep ridge that got evacuated earlier today. I talked the man over the the county roads in tiptonville this evening. He said they might have to bust the levee between there and ridgley. If so he said it would wipe all of tiptonville out. I was in hickman earlier and it is looking bad there as well. The sea wall in town has about 8 feet left before water comes over. It likes 6 foot or so before coming over the levee. I put a couple pics on the main forum. There was alot of people helping us fill up sand bags. They even had alot of the prisioners out working. All the houses down the levee they were evacuating. It is suppose to crest at 60 feet on may 5. If it moves that far hickman is gone for sure. Missouri is taking Tiptonville to court because they want to bust the levee. I dont understand why Missouri would not want it to bust over on this side. It would save them alot looks like.
