Q: Flooding

oooh goodness guys, i'm freaking out

it's been raining like crazy today and when we drove by the river earlier my mom was talking about how high it is.

flood stage is at 17 and now it's at almost 22 and they're evacuating people down by my house about 3 minutes away. i don't understand why they're evacuating people down there and not us.


they think by wednesday it's going to be at 28, the highest in history was 32 and that was the flood of 93 which was bad. gggrrrrrreat Sad Sad

maybe i just worry too much.

well i'm watching the news now, they're filling sand bags and removing train tracks so they can stack the sand bags and people are being told to evacuate by 1 wednesday (i think it's changed now)

and i drove by the river earlier and it's up in the trees and theres a bridge in the water and it's up to the bottm of that bridge. it just said on the news that most people in st joseph will not be effected so that's good, but i don't know if that puts us in the clear.. we live in the flood zone so i'm not sure.
