Holy Rain!!!

Its raining like a mother here and the yard is washing away, its still raining and the water is still going up.

Went for a drive, and just about every road is closed around me because its flooded out.

I have some pics i'll post in a few minutes.

these two were taken about 10 minutes apart. Sorry, they were taken out a window and through a screen



my back yard

from the road
the creek is in the tree line.


across the street

between the trees is the creek, its probably 10 feet deep at this point
my neighbor behind me is completely under water.

I just saw some of the charts and a lot of the creeks and small rivers are climbing fast. I have to run up to pull my dock in as the Delaware is starting to rise quickly. But it's pretty isolated to a certain area. I actually put down the summer fertilizer earlier today.

It's been raining a ton lately, but nothing flooding around here. Not even off of Schooley's Mountain.

Global warming, but the correct term is now climate change.

NJ rain totals are more than double what they should be this time of year.

~1.5" for the whole month is avg I think.

We are up to 3.83" so far this month, which solidifies that this rain is so played out.
