Hi, I was wondering how many people here reside in the northeast of the U.S.? I'm in New Hampshire, and we have over 300 roads closed due to flooding or actual washouts. From what I hear, Maine, Massachusetts, and New Hampshire are in a State of Emergency because of the floods. Many schools have been closed. There are a few whole towns closed (only emergency vehicles allowed on the roads in those towns). Some have been evacuated, and in other only specific streets have been evacuated. Of course, we're still expected to be at work, where I am now. The roads in my town are passable right now. Rivers are expected to crest within the next 24 hours (tributaries and the like are running south into the larger rivers, so our river near here hasn't reached its full height yet). Rain has stopped for now. But more rain is expected :( blueSprite:rose:

Hi Ravi, This has been quite the unusual experience, hasn't it? How are the roads around you? Still passable? Did you still have to go to work too? Try to stay dry ;) blueSprite :rose:

Unbelievable! Thankfully, the roads are pretty passable around where I live, and yes, I still get to enjoy the thrill of my daily Rt3 S ride to work! :) I'm usually pretty chipper, but this weather has turned me into a wet blanket who's ready to throw in the towel. /ravi My new year's resolution: 2048 x 1536 Home | Music | Articles | Freeware | Trips ravib(at)ravib(dot)com

Well, I'm in the southeast, New Orleans in fact. So, I know a thing or two about flooding.

You gotta love that crap about most employers. A tornado could hit the building and you're expected to work. I've seen employers skip town for crap they expect their employees to stay for. Sad really.

My niece just moved out of apt/house at Keene State. I've heard things were pretty bad up there. There was some serious flooding last fall too, wasn't there? BW
If you're not part of the solution, you're part of the precipitate.

Easy for you to say - I feel like I'm up the river without a paddle.

I'm in the Northwest Corner of Connecticut. It has been raining here since Thursday, with another 1-2 inches expected today. Tomorrow will be our first day of sun in over a week. The Farmington and Connecticut rivers are flooded, and there are many roads closed that follow along the rivers as well. Brigg Thorp Senior Software Engineer Timex Corporation
