grimrose_eilwynnIt's raining so hard here, they've issued a flash flood warning.
All the pools have flooded over, and the ditch out back so resembles a river that you could probably go whitewater rafting on it. The water went into the garage and right up to the front and back of the house, before finally receding.
At least one small business we've heard of has already flooded right through and been completely ruined. Police and ambulance alarms are blaring up and down the road every five minutes, and there have been car accidents and mud slides. Some people are trapped inside their houses.
Dad says we should stand on the roof with a boat, a paddle, and a sign that says "Somewhere Else or Bust." He's only sort of kidding.
This isn't the first time I've lived through some alarming natural disaster. Once, when I was in high school, me and my family had to evacuate our house and sleep on our grandparents' house's floor because of a wildfire burning through hundreds of acres of territory near our place of residence.
We haven't lost anything important yet, but we'll have to see. We're somewhat afraid the shed out back is going to collapse because of poor, muddy foundations.
