Ok... Enough with the bloody rain already... I need to get a bigger rain gauge as I've had to dump mine a few times already, and I'm just not going out there again... I trust that we've had a pile now...
We're nowhere near what we had when Floyd came through years ago and the Raritan hit 42 and change feet up, but we're at 29 feet currently... That's certainly screwing with any number of people in the area... Looks like NOAA is calling for the crest at 30 feet... 'Course, their prediction seems to be falling short of actual observations, so who knows...
My place is up on a hill... It was high and dry back at the 42' flood of '99 (Floyd), so I know I'm fine, but I really don't want to see Bound Brook floating down the river again... That was just too creepy...
Update: Make that almost 33' predicted... Major flooding happens at 33'... Main St floods at 30.5, and we're at 30.05' right now... I hope those folks kept up their flood insurance...
