I also have 6" of water in the back yard that has already come up into the shed Oh well not much ya can do I am just happy and feel lucky that its only 6" and not 1'. Hope everyone stays safe and off the little ice we have I know I dont have any snow left here after yesterday and at noon yesterday the Thames was up 2-3' here in chatham play safe everyone.

Bernie Posted December 28, 2008 Report Share Posted December 28, 2008 Windy up here too. Watched a light show across the street as a wire broke and crossed another. We still have power but all the niegbours across the street don't. Glad of that because my sump is running almost steady as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
irishfield Posted December 28, 2008 Report Share Posted December 28, 2008 Well I've got LOTS of firewood lying on the ground now (many trees down). Have two tractors with buckets up against the East side of my hangar as the wind gusts are pushing it crooked by 4 inches over 16 feet. Power was out from 8 to about 11:30 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
