Comite River

The Comite River is a right bank tributary of the Amite River, with a confluence near the city of Denham Springs, east of Baton Rouge, Louisiana. The river is 56.1 miles (90.3 km) long.[1] Its drainage basin comprises approximately 348 square miles (900 km2) and includes portions of Wilkinson and Amite counties in Mississippi, and East Feliciana and East Baton Rouge parishes in Louisiana.[2] The river's source lies in the hills of the East and West Feliciana parishes, and it empties into the Amite River just north of U.S. Route 190 (Florida Blvd) near the eastern boundary of Baton Rouge.

Flooding

When violent rains that frequent the capital city region strike, the water that pounds the hills and piney forest in the Felicianas drains down into this usually shallow and calm river and quickly transforms it. During such flooding, the water flows southwards, sometimes flooding homes in outlying areas east of Baton Rouge. Floodwaters have been recorded to have covered Greenwell Springs Road in extreme conditions.

gollark: As the majority of the system actually is just triggering events and some callbacks at certain times, I could plausibly modularize it nicely.
gollark: I have tried adding another task to start the MPD one if it stops somehow, but that somehow did nothing. I have tried vast quantities of `try`/`catch`es. I've tried turning on various async debugging options, removing the websocket interface, etc. Nothing works and I have no idea why.
gollark: AIOHTTP is fine, it's just that somehow all my interacting things will cause it to break for no apparent reason.
gollark: It used to use gevent, but I had issues, so it's on AIOHTTP now, but also stuff breaks unfathomably.
gollark: Oh no.
