There was a guy running around with his shirt off and a beer in his hand,
but didn't have my camara ready...

I think my softball game for tonight will be cancelled....

Quick moving front. Should be sunny in just a bit.
Yeah...I took those pictures about 30 mintues before posting
I was just able to get to work now even though it required a little wading through that intersection

I work at our campus help desk and apparently our NOC is getting flooded and everything is down...luckily pen and paper still works for case notes

UPDATE 2

Pics are down for now...because I'm at work and they are stored at home

Thanks to Skiddex he saved one for now
PIC

UPDATE FINALE

I'm up near the capitol. I don't remember it getting quite that bad, but I only got to look once or twice since it takes me 45 minutes to find a window from my spot here in the borg cubicle cube.

Yeah this is a picture of the corner of Dayton St and Brooks St.

Park St where it dips down under that bridge and comes back up by Regent Street was even worse....cars were stuck down there

Been there, done that. :D

We had flooding up here in Eau Claire earlier in the week from storms.

That madison.com pic is great. My coworker just showed it to me too.

I like how brown and muddy the water is. And yet it's probably still safer to drink than the well water or lake water here.

That is exactly where I work, DoIT

Neat, I'll be heading there tomorrow for the weekend

Is DoIT still in the CS building? If so it's for the best that you didn't go to work, because there was some flooding and other issues there.
