Default Hey Seward
So is it as bad as the papers make it out to be? It sounds like you guys are going to float away. I haven't seen any pictures so it's hard to tell how much water there is.

Yup: it was pretty bad. Flood waters went down to normal after a few days though. I lost about 100' of my driveway...washed away and went "downstream". The Seward airport was under water. Lots of homes had water in their basements, front yards, etc. A friend of mine had part of his driveway washed away.

Rumor has it that Seward residents are starting to build their homes on dock floats, instead of concrete footings...

I haven't really heard much from over that way either. Skilak Lake is down 6 or 8 inches now. And the Kenai River has dropped in Sterling just as much.
