With all this rain ruining our weekend I thought it might be a good time to reflect on the time that I59 flooded during reconstruction. I can’t remember what year this was but the photos (unknown source) are incredible!

    It’s not I-59. 59 isn’t an interstate. It’s US-59. It’s a state highway.

    I’ve lived here over 20 years. Sorry I’m not up to par on my highway definitions like you all obviously are. Lame.

    There is indeed an Interstate 59, it just runs in states along the East Coast.
