Flooding! Now with pics!

Holy crap! haha the ground was froaen and it warmed up yesterday so it thawed and then it rained!

9 inches in one hour our basement has 8 inches of standing water in it! my friends family is coming ot stay with us becuase they had to evacuate

we're lucky becuase we live in an old famrhouse and its up on a hill so we don't have to leave but the rivers are all over flown

I think we're going to take some horses for a friend too -- if the town says its okay (we're not zoned for it) becuase we have a fenced in field

at the barn they were at it is in a lowland right next to a reservior they were up to their forarms in water

I'm sick of water!

off to wet dry vac!

Here's some pictures (they are taken by the town newspaper that's why their so good lol)


That's the Weekeepeemee river which is a very small river (a creek realy) that starts of to the right of the road and kinda follows the road but it flooded the entire field on the left



This is a hay-field across town that is now a lake!

WOWWEEWOW There I was thinking we were infamous for rein Unreal...Hope you Guys stay safe...especially the horses

WOW you guys got just a little rain! I hope you can help those people out with their horses and everything dries up soon! Good Luck maybe you're area has beat my state of 100,000 lakes hah!

lol Connecticut the Nutmeg State land of 1,000 temporary lakes

OMG

I am never going to complain about my weather again I swear..

I hope it does not get worse for you. What a PAIN

Oooh, I hope we don't get flooding like that when (IF???) our snow melts, water in the basement- NOT fun. Good luck with the clean up!

lol we got most of the water out now it has that lovely smell!

the cat got a surprise yesterday lol she has been outside for like 3 days and i guess she finally got cold and came in and she was running around the house and she ran downstairs I've never heard a cat make that noise before she was very wet hehe

Looks like here lately, Is sure humbles you doesn't it. Hope everyone faired well and no one was hurt

WOW. I hope yall have like a conoe or a boat or something, cut it doesnt look like yall are going anywhere for the next fet days.

i can sympathise its like that over here at the mo,just constant rain.What makes me laugh is they will probably declare a hose pipe ban in July

I feel for ya. I know there's a couple of places when it starts flooding here, I can't even get to town. Well, I probably could the real "back way", but heckie pooh, ya know... Course the boys thinks it's funny when that happens... Mom, we can't get to school.

My pond's overflowed twice, it just heads straight down the dam and the hill to the live creek which spills into a big pond behind us, and into our big creek at the back... and boy, that sucker is super deep!

Course my barn's kind of sitting in a low spot... don't go there - and no, I didn't build it there. When we were getting so much rain, we'd dug a ditch through the barn so it wouldn't mess up the stalls, and boy, those little mice holes, you never seen water coming through - weirdest thing I've ever seen. Stupid little mice!

haha

we are officially dry! well a little damp in the basement and the barn/shed is kind of muddy but Gordie the ever so spoiled goat is in the garage and couldn't care less!

The smell is getting better and my friend is probably going back to her house tomorrow

The horses are staying until the weekend! lol it is so cool waking up in the morning and seeing horses in my yard! --- I'm thinking of writing the mayor and seeing if we could keep a horse on our property we have 2 acres that isn't woods and the farm was here long before the zoning regulations plus, it would be for 4-h and FFA haha I have some persuading to do!

thankfully there haven't been any injuries or deaths -- I really feel for the people that have been affected by the tornados

wow ;affraid; i thought it was bad here! well its not really flooding anywhere here. but all the snow is melting in our yard and the yard is pretty much a pond lol. here is some pics. the first one is of me standing in the middle of our yard/pond





and this one is of our yard/pond



glad to here its drying up tho, superlope

NICE haha

I'm SOO happy it's starting to flood here! haha It's been warm all weekend and I think it might get cold again this week, I'm not really sure, I don't care though! haha NO MORE SNOW!! jk, we still have LOTS after the storm Phenom and I both got.

lol I send you my half-built ark!



I love your feet pic lol!
