This last "weather event" will go down as historical. I spent all day with a raincoat, pick-ax, hoe and shovel ditching around my buildings.
The yards were filling with water- destination basements. It was me vs 6 1/4" of rain which translates to 60" of snow....we'll give Mother Nature a nod for that blessing.Soaked isn't the word for it Drenched to the bone is a better description. It was wetter than an otter's pocket.

We had to pump 8 neighbor's cellars. Thank God for gas generators.

Well I was in MA but we got hammered too. It was far worse than they said it would be. Buildings lost shudders and I have some heavy deck furniture that has never moved in any windstorm that got knocked over.

Power outages were on a level far worse than most hurricaines.

We went through that a few years ago when I lived in Towanda. Can't really get it until you've been there. Water is such a powerful force-goes where it wants.

You're dealing with far worse than we are on this side of the state. We haven't had power since Monday, and we're not on the list to be returned today, but that's a minor inconvenience compared to your situation. Stay safe!
