At least it's free. so to speak.

We put a barrier at the back screen door, started moving everything out, and used big beach towel to sop, squeeze into a bucket, sop, squeeze into a bucket....

I wonder if this happened in the 40's? Ha ha ha. I hope it happened to my boss who's my neighbor.

my whole yard was flooded. It was knee high, just got thru sweeping it all out.

my friend also called me and said that his focus got flooded in kalihi, and that it got swept away along with a mustang, and he doesnt know where it is now

But at least it stopped for now.

When rain comes inside, you need one of those commercial floor squeegees. Works a lot faster than a mop when standing water is less than 3/4". Can someone loan you one?

Good luck, fellas - sorry to hear about the junk weather.

Jesus, wasnt bad here on St Louis Heights. Not much rain at all, but heard all the flash flood warnings on tv. The steep hill helps us atleast, but poor everyone at the bottom of it. Sorry to hear about all your problems guys, that sucks. Hope you get all dried up and cleaned up. Hope the subies made it through ok...
