Floods, Stuck Cars, and Scanners
Wow. This is one heck of a storm. Yesterday about 100 cars got stranded between Snow Valley and Big Bear Dam. Today, I'm hearing that Valley of Enchantment's mobile home park is being washed away. And *everywhere* I keep hearing the worst is yet to come. Tonight the snow level is supposed to drop to 4,000 ft (about 1300 ft lower than us)
Friend's are being flooded in their homes. One's basement, another has water seeping up her bottom floor. Luckily we haven't had a single drop come inside. Quite amusing since the two leaks I *know* of aren't leaking. I figure they've been healed ;) (wood swelled?) One dog doesn't want to come inside (Solo) and the other doesn't want to go out (Leo). And drum drum drum on the roof goes the rain.
I have been able to find a couple neat things though. Sean wrote me a program to have up-to-date weather alerts. And I have found a little something else for weather. Plus there is a local scanner online.
We're pretty well hunkered down with plenty food and everything buttoned up around. Everything outside (including vehicles) have been brought in (actually months ago). Water is all flowing away from the house not INTO it. (yikes) I'm going stir crazy wanting to be out in it HA.
I'm waiting to watch my favorite program on tv this evening : Extreme Makeover Home Edition :D
