bw87a, don't forget about 1997  . That's odd that the river didn't cover any part of waterfront park that day. I remember going down to the river about a month ago and the water was covering the outer edge of the Great Lawn, and i don't think there was any major storms prior.  |
well Waterfront Park wasn't open during the 1997 flood. And I believe that there have been some flood precautions taken during the development of the park itself. I know the park does flood. I just found it very odd that it wasn't flooding when Louisville received its largest rainfall in a single day. It was close. Within inches of coming into the lawn, but it never did...
