I live downriver and have a creek that runs behind my fence. (I guess my property line actually includes part of the creek). Usually, the creek is about 3 feet behind my fence. Tonight, the creek is about 30 feet inside my fence. This is the highest I've seen it get. I still have about 40 feet before it gets to the house, and the land is elevated more as you get nearer the house, but I'm worrying.

A flash flood warning (on top of the regular ole flood warning for my county) has been posted and the two counties surrounding me have severe t-storm warnings again too. And those Milwaukee storms are heading straight for us for the middle of the night and they're predicting more rain tomorrow and Sunday.

Yes, I'm getting pretty nervous.

(my dog keeps going out there, trying to run her usual course along the fence, gets to the water and just stares at it, like "where did my yard go?")


ETA: You were writing your last post while I was writing mine! I was on the top floor of our office building downtown during that green sky storm this afternoon. It was definitely eerie. Security announced to move away from the windows.. but almost our whole building is windows! No escape!
