Storm/Flood damage reports

I am getting off pretty easy compared to many. Past two storms had me do some preventative work that paid off this time. (ie. extensions to downspouts, cleaned gutters, and dug trenches to direct water away from foundation) Cellar/shop was dry today.... until 3pm, when it started coming up through the floor when the water table was fully saturated. Pump is running full time in an 8" deep sump. I've been able to channel the water to the pump with lengths of 1X2 PVC trimboard. Put a bead of caulking under to seal it to the uneven concrete. I'll pull it up after the water subsides. It's very minor compared to what some are dealing with. Hope you all get through this one OK, and hope this suggestion might be of use to someone.
