Crazy Weather

We had some crazy weather over this past weekend.  It rained cat's and dogs, with some serious high winds.  In my neighborhood some people lost power due to trees going down.   I had 3 brief ( less than 2 minutes ) power blinks, just long enough to cause the cable box to reboot. I live on high ground - but just a couple miles away the river runs through a neighboring town.

 The area where I work got hit even harder.  A large number of people in the surrounding towns had to be evacuated by boat.  On the side of route 80 on my way home I could see houses with water up to the second floor windows.

    Glad to hear you're ok. Thought about you when I saw reports of all the awful weather up there.
