Remedial Posting

Here's some shots from the storm a little while back.


Anyone that's been over will notice the water a little bit higher than it normally is. I know its dark, but you should still get the feel. The depressing thing is, that down the block, in the direction of the flow this spills into a pipe. That night it obviously overwhelmed the pipe capacity. After the pipe there's a park, the leaves were like 2 feet up on the fences, so I can only gather the park was 2 feet under water. After the park there's a street, with houses, some with garages below grade.

The video isn't much clearer than the photo, but you can hear the sound too. Normally it's a pleasant trickle. Not that night.
