My house is on top of a hill so we'll be safe, but we are completely surrounded by floodwater higher than I've ever seen it (came up FAST). It's still a few inches short of the record, but more rain is coming. I'm amazed the power company hasn't cut us off yet, since the lines go through the flooded neighborhood at the bottom of the hill.
I probably won't be going anywhere for a few days, though I suspect I'll be able to get out just in time to go to work Monday morning (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/dry.gif) Maybe I'll have time to do a lot more on the car than I planned this weekend, but first I think I'll dust off the generator (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) Oh ... and the new bridge that was rebuilt higher after the last flood still isn't high enough (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif) This post has been edited by sgarnett: Sep 23 2006, 03:58 PM |

The creek a couple houses down flooded the bottom of our street-worst we've ever seen it. The sump pumps are working overtime. Friends of mine at a nearby apartment building are having their cars towed away by the insurance company Monday to be checked out for flood damage. |
