These pictures were taken on Thursday, December 31. The water is falling here but rising downstream.
Note the railroad trestle with the sign indicating 12 feet, 2 inches clearance to the street below. I estimate it is about 2 feet (0.6 meter) above the water here. (The track actually runs beneath the Arch grounds.) The street is what's underwater in the second photo from yesterday's post. The river is usually far down the levee below the street.
The bottom picture shows how far the flood got up what used to be the foot of Washington Avenue into the north end of the Arch grounds work.
