Drone Footage Of The Flooding On The Texas/Louisiana Border

If your phone has been going off all morning with warnings, this is why.

The Texas/Louisiana border on I-10 is flooded in Orange county Texas.

Louisiana State Police are asking that drivers look for alternate routes as flood waters will force the closure of I-10 at the Sabine River. Troopers say the lanes will close at some point today, Tuesday, March 15th.

Flooding along the roadway is located at mile marker 4. This is the Toomey/Starks exit. State Police and TXDOT announced late yesterday that the official detour route is I-20 in north Louisiana.

You can also use US Highway 171 and then 165 north.
