Crews are racing against the clock in Pulaski County to make sure drainage sites can handle the rain Isaac is going to dump on this part of the state.
   
They're moving out, digging in and shoring up for what could be the worst-case scenario.

Workers have until Thursday afternoon to finish clearing out and prepping 300 small and big sites such as the one along Watson Road before heavy rains and possible flash floods hit.

With the weather sunny and dry on Wednesday, some folks can't fathom what might happen.

But Isaac will be here, right on the heels of these crews.
