Best wishes to everyone in New Jersey! My wife has a sister in Wenonah. Cannot get in touch. News here in Arizona is spotty.

Massive flooding everywhere. We are without power and it’s looking like it might be for days.

It’s really bad but this time thankfully fo us it’s just power. Many others have severe flooding.

Hope you get power back soon! Do you have a generator, GAD?

Tragically, more deaths from Ida in the NE than in Louisiana.

Does GAD have a generator?? Uuummm, my guess would be absolutely. Along with the best gas cans for storing his gas stash. (Read his lessons learned from Sandy. Lots of good info there, including the fact that Manwich sauce does not include the meat.)

We're near Wenonah (couple of miles away) - they had pretty substantial damage - here's a Fox News report from last night:

As others have expressively pointed out, I do. My UPS failed which has me annoyed, but I have a fried who lives about a mile from that ballpark shown in Grot’s post and she is not so lucky. Pic from her front door:

Dayum! And once again we learn that water goes wherever it wants to driven by gravity.

Hoping everyone here is ok.

Still in a dry spell out west, the longest I can remember.

Amphibious cars?

They exist. I grew up on a lake and once had a family drive up to our dock in one asking how to get out of the lake! We said - "the way you came in"!
