Historic record flooding happening here in my town

[ScoobMaster]

This is scary!

We had flash flooding from heavy rains last night (had to alter my drive to work due to washed out roads and flooded underpasses). Today brough MORE heavy rain and it is STILL pouring right now! To my south in Scranton/Wilkes-Barre they are getting hammered as well (evacuating).

EBS has been going off, the forecast river crests (for sometime on THURSDAY) are projected to be HIGHER than previous record marks by as much as 3-4 FEET. This is BAD. I'm lucky that my house is not in any danger, but I feel for my fellow citizens!

Check out this Radar Animation!

We are SOOOO screwed! 🙁

Been there and done that. Here's what St. Louis looked like about 13 years ago:

Hope you, your family and friends are all well and safe.
