Most of the rain has been north and west of the Calcasieu river, so there should not be that much water coming into Big Lake to have much effect.

Wed and Thur the winds were 20 to 30 mph, so BL is probably fairly muddy.
Looks like I was wrong..... did not know the Oakdale area had gotten a lot of rain.

The I-10 gauge salinity reading had gotten up to 7 ppt before the rain. Now it has dropped below 1 ppt. and the river crest is still a few days away.
