It rained more this afternoon and then more this evening. The creek was higher and more intense when we (and the rest of the neighborhood) ventured down around 5:00 today. We thought there is no way it would get close to our house. But, we were wrong. After dinner, I was in the living room and saw basically a river in the street in front of our house. Fortunately, there was no flooding for us, but others down into the neighborhood had 2-3 feet of water in their basements this afternoon. T-man was scared and it was comforting to see D-man really trying hard to make his brother feel better - "the river just had too much to drink and it doesn't have anywhere to go.
We will have a other rain day tomorrow and more precipitation, but here's hoping a reprieve tonight helps. We've had almost our yearly rain total this week. And yes, we can here the water raging down the creek from our bedroom with the windows closed.
