And this is after the water went down a couple feet. It was impossible to do anything with the water at its peak height. I couldn't even get home from work and I only live about 3/4 mile away.

Wow that's horrible. I hope your house and cars are all ok.

woody80z28 07-01-2006 09:21 PM

Yeah, all my stuff is fine except for the boiler in the cellar. Cold showers suck!

We just got internet and cable back today, all this stuff happened on Tues. We got running water back late yesterday. I spent most of today helping friends on lower ground haul all their stuff to the dump...

Mike Jones 07-01-2006 09:25 PM

That's to bad, I hate when crap like this happens to people. How much rain did you get, it had to be a ton!!

woody80z28 07-01-2006 11:24 PM

9.76" in 24 hours, and 3.4" in the two days before that.

sorry to hear that dude

woody80z28 07-02-2006 09:21 AM

The national gauard is in and there were ambulances and firetrucks around from lots of places I never heard of.

Now that you can actually get around town and the running water is back on it's not such a big deal. It's just time for cleanup.
