Flooding Pictures

I took some pictures of the flooding from our most recent storm on Wednesday. During the 2nd 1/2 of March my area received 20+ inches of rain.

This is a bridge to what is usually an island.

Another view of the island--you can see the top of the bench is barely above water.

This is normally a parking lot. Note the red light way towards the back.

This is a zoom-in shot of the picture above. The place that looks like a river is really a road.


A flooded lake


One of my favorite places. The part towards the bottom of the picture with the ripples is a muti-step fountain in normal conditions. The steps are under several feet of water now.


And finally, what I would normally call a stream, but the locals call a river. Right now it looks like a river--it's probably 4-5 times as wide as it usually is.

Wow! I'm amazed at all that flooding. We definitely didn't get hit that hard. I hope all those sights recover!
