Rainy East

Is everybody out East staying dry? I don't want anyone else to have a swim up pool table.:eek:

Considered firing up the Mini Hawk in the pond in the front yard yesterday. I was afraid the John Deere would get stuck though.

I think I'm one of the lucky ones with a dry basement.

It looks like it's stopped this morning. :D

Basement flooded worse that ever(house was originally built in 1600's and has a stone/rock foundation). By my calculations last night a gallon of water was coming in every minute. It's down to about 40% of that now, but the wife is staying home for a 2nd day to monitor and work the sump pump/wet vac. I'd estimate we pumped out 700-800 gallons so far.

The inflow in the basement is about 1/3 of what it was yesterday. Heading back down to the wetvac...
