It's bad... We woke up this morning to learn that our little community became an island overnight. All roads leading in and out are flooded. And it will be like that for a few days. The water is still rising. Yesterday I drove around and took a couple of quick pictures because I knew it was coming.
24 hours later...
Here is another before shot. Sorry it's fuzzy - I took it while driving because traffic wasn't stopped at that point.
Again 24 hours later.
I love this little farm. It's on the other side of the valley.
Since we are flooded and I can no longer drive over there I had to take a picture of it from my side of the valley. Yes it's under water.
This is a way common site.
That folks is a power line dragging in the flood waters.
Keep our area in your prayers. All told 30,000 people have been evacuated. We are high enough up that there is no danger for our home, but so many others are affected. I just heard on the news that it is the highest flood levels (in our valley) since 1932. It's Bad!

Hi! So I was looking through your old posts and found your blog reading level; you are marked high school. I tried it and they marked mine Genius! So I'm bragging a little. But I'd be scared of it flooded here in CA! Though all it does is rain. Bloye!
Those are amazing pictures! Your town will be in our thoughts and prayers. I hope the water levels go down quickly!
Oh my! That happened so quickly. It is so strange that you are having so much rain and we are having so much snow. Keep safe!
