Sitrep:

Was at the station until 3:00 AM, river crested @ about 2:30am
Small crew slept in station, three guys slept in trucks.

0621 AM - Marine Rescue, Person drove into water, tried to escape, found clinging to a branch in the road.
most of day, waiting for the river to drop - it didn't drop much, not enough for pump details to start, prepped equippment, blocked traffic.
Alll water wells are contaminated.
About 100 residents of a trailer park are unreachable, they will need water soon.

It is just a "condensed" vapor situation that would have been better if it had "mist" them.

Sometimes you just have to go with the "flow" and hope some "eddy" doesn't suffer emotional "turbulence" that could cause "dikes" to feel disrespected in a "whirlpool" of politically incorrect "spillover".

I've been trying to resist participating in this thread, but I figure I'm "dammed" if I do and "dammed" if I don't.

I hope you guys get some relief soon. It looks like a cold and miserable way to spend one's time. When you get a chance please give us a "lessons learned" post.
