the flooding has gotten so bad in my area that they are releasing the dams. My yard is allready under 3-4 inches of water, and the water is up to my door jams.

They are releasing the dams this evening which I am in direct line of fire for both of them


The roads in and out of my house and my mothers house will be closed at 5pm today, they just gave me notice about a half hour ago, I am still at work trying to figure out a plan, not sure were to go and what I need to do to get ready for flooding.


Anyone ready for some over night guests? I hear the flight fares are cheap right now, maybe ill go find PT or something, Im not really interested in staying at the salvation army

OH NO!! I hope you're ok! (Does this mean you can't do the CD competition? )

thanks sweets, room for me and the little one Ill probably just trek up to Oberlin and stay there till it dries out I guess

ella731 said:

Well, I would come stay with you, but your house is flooded! At least they're evacuating you. They just keep burying us in under snow

its strange, its kinda like, what items are the most important to you


haha, I guess this may be one way to get all new furniture! oh yes lets pray the flood ruins all my hand me down furniture, at least I have a sense of humor about it instead of a sense of panic

Eve, that sounds crappy!

Hope it all works out ok

*struggles to find helpful words

damn hun

NC doors are open if you need a place ..

best wishes

Mach

pippet said:

I know and I cant even swim

ya it should be ok, I just heard they are going to let 3ft + out of the dam, so that should be a real fun time

ella731 said:

huge s ella make sure you grab ALL of your photos...they're irreplaceable! (spoken as the true scrapbooker that I am!)

Try to stay dry!

Very sorry to hear about this. It has been raining like crazy up here in Northeast Ohio lately. What part of Cleveland are you in?

Maybe throw up some plywood or something to keep the water out, block off your basement windows, etc...

Tom said:

Im not in Cleveland, Im in Tuscararawas County!


here a picture of the dam

Just think of it this way, it's better to be evacuated than to be evicted.

ella731 said:

That's a dam? You need some Dutch engineers over there.

Oh, damn.. (no pun intended...lol)

Good luck with everything...water can be such a destructive force. I hope you and your mom don't lose anything of value..
