People who live at Riverview Apartments wish they had less of a view of the river.

Road Closed

The little piece of road in the upper right is actually the bridge over the river.

The dude taking those other guys' names was the Times-Herald photographer, and I thought, hell, I'm doin' what he's doin', except my "readers" will see the pics a lot sharper. Even through my dirty truck windshield.

It's good to see the sun shining.

Although you know, despite those Riverview apartments, when I drive around I can see that people have avoided the flood plains for building homes, for the most part.

And every season, there are a dozen idiots who will tell themselves, "Bah, my big SUV can handle this!" and drive right around the Road Closed signs. Then when their cars float away we all laugh and point.

Here in KC, we laugh and point at their funerals, too. People never learn.

What river is that??

Pete came home early because crossing the Susquehanna may be a problem pretty soon. This photo is from here. This is Front Street in Binghamton.

All my pics are Schuylkill.

It is amazing how widespread the flooding is, not being a hurricane or anything.

edit this event needs a name
edit2 I think that picture is the Chenango just before it hits the Susquehanna. cnn has some nice video of the event up search on Binghamton unless you know how to use this cnnPlayVideo('/video/us/2006/06/28/chernoff.new.york.flooding.cnn','/us');

All over.:eek:

More. :(

By the way, guess who was the LP Township fire police who closed Pawlings Road there...our own SusanC. I just got off the phone with her. :-)
