OMG Carolyn that's some amount of rainwater you've had. I hope it has stopped now and that the land has managed to absorb all that water.
Holy Cow,..that's a torrent of rain!,..did you have plants out?,..and has it subsided by now,..nothing damaged i hope.
Wow Carolyn, that is a lot of water, could have used a row boat to get down your drive way.. Love your green house.
We had rain Sat, Sun,Mon and Tues. anywhere from light to moderate rainfall. Mon and Tues. it only got up to 47 F. for highs, An inch of rain altogether. We are now about 10 inches above normal for the year.
That was a picture of the river Carolyn which dumps into Lake Keiper. You may need to talk to a man named Noah. Jerry
it is now 22 hrs later. The creeks are full. Sorry that I couldn't funnel this to you Glendann. Jerry give me another year and maybe I will officially have a Lake Keiper In my front yard(thats my husbands department). I wasn't home when this started, but Kevin had put my trailer full of plants away already. So everything was ok when I got back. It was a lot of water. I was on I76 when it started and you couldn't see with the wipers on high.
It might be a mess now and I hope your structures weren't flooded, But that will make for a green summer. Hope every thing is well.
Thanks RJ, Everything is well. this time we weren't flooded out. In the beginning of March we had 10" of snow on a Friday and 1 1/2" of rain on Sunday night..... Whew whee Everything was flooded. The water ran around my greenhouses and down the driveway and washed 1/3 of the soil in one of my gardens down into the roadditch, good thing we have the equipment to scoop it back out and back into the garden. What a mess. :!: All the water from behind us comes through a ravine on the back of our property, all of that water is funneled from the development on the next road over...... this is a lot of water. Did I mention we live on a hill? this is a very good thing. It all keeps running down the hill.
