I remember the floods when the river was up over Riverside drive, and as far as one could see over into Arkansas.
The river was closed to traffic.
I guess it was in the early 60s.

Memphis, however, is on a high bluff, so it should not have any problem. It is often referred to as “The Bluff City”
Reminds me of a saying from years ago.
“Memphis, the city built on a bluff, and run on the same principle” haha

The bluffs are cut through by streams and rivers. They really offer little benefit here now.

Be safe all in Shelby County and all along the Mississippi...
