My dad's chimney cap blew off he now has a nasty black sloppy mess on the floor of his furnace room and he has a leak somewhere in the sidewall on the north side of his house(I think) resulting in a collapsed ceiling in the same room.
Not much can be done about either at the moment other than clean it up and stay on top of it.

For the first time in my house, there is a touch of wetness. Not enough to mop or even clean with a paper towel, just a little dampness...

The brook near my house is almost or just over the street in a couple places, Warwick Ave by 117, LakeShore is under behind the airport, and 117 next to Demos has some water...

As much as I curse at my 160', 25 degree slope uphill driveway in the winter, during weather spells like this, I appreciate the benefit of living 60' above street

Dry as a bone

suprisingly my basement is dry and sump hasn't even gone off yet. But most of EG roads are flooded here or there. There is a river raging over the street outside my neighborhood. that road (south rd.) is closed just west of me. i think it it will wash out soon if it hasn't allready. Tilinghast is flooded over in two spots and closed. Frenchtown also in several spots. Most of downtown eg also flooded in areas from what the dpw guys closing the streets told me. yet somehow people are still finding their way to my garage sale.

i bent my wookie
