Schot 407 Posted May 13, 2008 Share Posted May 13, 2008 Oh man... What a mess Total. I imagine you must have been doing all sorts of running. To help out others and get drenched in the process, haha. The folks there are lucky to have people like you. Hang in there. Link to comment
Genenut 8 Posted May 13, 2008 Share Posted May 13, 2008 I live in the shadow of a mountain that has the highest records sustained windspeeds on earth... at over 200 mph ... before the recording device broke. Strong winds are nothing new and there is a reason we have winter, MUD Season, and then spring around here .... *lol* Thats just a little flooding ... Link to comment

I'm glad the weather held out before that happened. its rough because we're only a block wide, you can see the bay and ocean from pretty much anywhere in town. its quite easy to flood. even on just a normal thunderstorm, bayside tends to rise dangerously high. we get drunk people falling in all the time lol. -Total Link to comment
FrostElfGuard 9 Posted May 13, 2008 Share Posted May 13, 2008 Glad to hear the flooding has stopped. Had to google map rehoboth beach delaware... And then I learned something (elementary for USians): Philadelphia is not inland! 2 lessons in one day... at this rate I'll become a genius! Link to comment
Spock 271 Posted May 13, 2008 Share Posted May 13, 2008 We used to own a Time-Share Condo which was right on the water in Ocean City, Maryland. It was on the bay side but it still got a lot of wind and water during storms. We've been to Rehoboth Beach and it's a pretty area. Link to comment
