After it poured all night Friday, the jam cleared about 3 o'clock Saturday afternoon. As I write this it's 10PM Saturday night, and the creek has risen 5 feet since this afternoon. There is now low land flooding, and our sump pump has been running every 17 seconds all day pumping water out of the sump hole in our basement, BUT the basement itself is dry.
This is the creek from the opposite direction. Normally colder weather will help check the rising water, BUT right now the temp is 58º. I see by the radar there could be more rain coming too. It promises to be a long night. I will be up every few hours checking on things.
A collapsed barn from all the heavy snow we've had. There are lots of these barns around this season.
Another barn just a few miles from our house.
I didn't realize part of the window was in the view.
OK, it's now 10PM, and I'm going to get my high boots on and go down to check on the status of the rising water. When I fed the animals tonight the water was with-in 10-12 feet from the back of the barn itself.
Have a good night all, and I'll update you tomorrow. ( Sunday).
