Drainage projects to begin in St. Landry Parish and last updated 2021-06-22 18:27:56-04 OPELOUSAS â "Another three inches it would have achieved my porch," Marcus Amos said on Tuesday. Amos says the water was so high over Parks Street, residents couldn't leave their neighborhood. Dozens of his chickens drowned due to flood waters in his yard. "The next big rain, this neighborhood and the next three over, we're in trouble. We will need that truck in St. Landry Parish to come get us out." Amos says the issue is in the coulee next to his house. He tells KATC debris from previous storms was not cleaned out.
