Down in comes, in drips, drops, and drizzles. buckets full. We are cosy and warm and have not lost power, so except that we are now flooded in and only the vehicles are water damaged, all's well. Nathan's car was on the street when the storm drains failed, so his car has several inches of water inside. Kids baled it out and moved it into the garage so Trevor could move his van onto the driveway too. Matt and Christina are both working. I hope this is all gone before they get home. According to the news, the worst will have passed in another hour. Candis is supposed to be singing at the Mall with her chorale group late this afternoon and so we are hopeful that may still happen. I have plans to go to our Brit film Club this afternoon, but may not be able to drive out. I'd rather skip it than try to pass through flooded streets.
Hope you are all warm and dry and safe.

Oh, gosh, this could be a shot of my neighborhood! Be sure to get that car dried out and checked out by a mechanic. So many flooded cars appear on the market after a hurricane around here. Not good! My husband's little truck has been left on our street during overnight storms to be drained out the next morning. It needs new carpet! But the transmission has been tested and is still good to go. Take care and don't be the first car to enter a flooded intersection! Such a rare occasion in your area, there will be horror stories I'm sure.
