Long Beach residents met Wednesday night to discuss a drainage project that has been in the works for 15 years and has drawn controversy from residents who live along the project site.
Friday's rain brought back old troubles for Moss Point.
With all this rain, flooding is an issue Moss Point has been dealing with for quite some time.
