Flooded! (56k waterlogged)

Remember that freak thunderstorm a few weeks ago? Well, I was at a restaurant at the time and the whole block (and the restaurant) flooded. As a result, the customers of the bar had to get on bar stools and sit at the bar till waters receded. The owner bought us all a drink, I bought myself many, many more. One of the servers there was taking pics and she finally sent em to me. So here they are!

I really wish I hadn't been drinking that day though. I could have had my WRX and been playing in the water at full speed before it got too deep

One of the cooks cleaning the gutter (trying to anyways):

The intersection flooding:



Apparently Jettas don't float:



Inside the restaurant:



Following the storm. This is looking up 28th st.



Front of the restaurant. That CCN newspaper machine tried to float away and they had to save it:



Patrons who were forced to take refuge in the bar stools and drink until the waters receded:



VW bug and a bimmer going for a swim. A busted *** Supra across the street:



Probably the first time these SUVs have ever seen duty outside of light rain and summer soccer practice runs:
