Flooding

So, the area of North Carolina I live in has become victim to a massive flash flood over the past 12 hours or so. The flooding is covering bridges and roads, causing pretty big sink holes to form over said roads and bridges, and all sorts of other nasty stuff. This is just another part of a really bizarre summer we've been having around here - the weather has basically alternated between hot, drought-type weather (90+ degrees) and very rainy weather.

 

Thankfully there are no reported fatalities or injuries yet, but emergency services are urging everyone to stay indoors (except for one residential area near a dam, which is being urged to evacuate). Hopefully people follow that advice.

I heard nothing but National Weather Service warnings on the radio today. Not where I live, but I was elsewhere most all day ... at a place rather conducive to floods. Hooray for not drowning, I suppose!
