At least your shop isnt flooded.....

[LadyTSi]

I am heading to NE Philly from Burlington... i hope i will be ok but i'll be in the van .... i guess we'll see

any one know how Rt38 or Pennsauken is?

[markley02]

The water will crest in Trenton at 2PM tomorrow. The Calhoun St bridge will be closing shortly

[ray@turbotek]

its starting to get dark here

[fastjim]

i came home from seaside this morning and traffic was fine the whole way... but when i crossed over the trenton makes bridge and got back on rt1 the oppisite traffic what backed up all the way to the oxford valley mall exit.. sucks for people going too jersey i would advise looking for another way if possible..

[Scapegoat]

I just got back from disney world, met a very attractive german girl in "Germany" at Epcot's world showcase too late in the vacation to make any moves... but I got her e-mail.


That sucks...

[321Gone_]

That blows, its actually partly sunny in Mount Laurel it seems. Mount Holly that way as well!

[james_ls]

I woke up to be surrounded by a few inches of water...that was cool.

[Broken5hift]

its bright and sunny in yardley?

[SexyDSM95]

Davisville Rd. was packed with traffic and Street Road/County Line was NOT moving at all. It took me an hour to get to work and it usually takes me twenty minues.
This was Street Road around 9:15AM:

[subwrxkid]

wow that sucks bro. Hope everything works itself out.

[SilverTurboRidin]

well i just woke up so i dont know what kinda damage there is..

[Broken5hift]

i just pee'd in my friends flooded basement. hopefully he doesnt notice

[Snoozie]

its nice and sunny here

[dwl137]

flooding is bad here too, wasnt sure I'd actually make it to work. Be interesting to see how the flood wall does once the water here crests about 4 feet above our flood stage.

[03sLoMaX]

today sucks because they started blocking more sites at my job...i cant get on like anything...effin gay....im waiting for them to block tst now

[GottalovetheWagon]

2 hours it took me today to get to work everything was backed up and so slow, and its only gonna be worse tonight on the way home ughhhhhh

[Turbo_CitrusEs]

Im wondering how downtown Easton is looking right now. I know the delaware river was up pretty dam high last night. Normally when we have floods downtown is covered. Last flood we had the Mcdonalds and stuff like that where completely under water!!!!

[S4toSTI]

I have had food poisoning since yesterday... definately no fun.

[WRXD]

I love how your guys are pissed cause its taking you a long time to get to work:

here is my day----

wake up at 4:45 to my cats freaking out and running all over the apartment...go downstairs--and I hear what sounds like a really loud running toilet. Glance into the basement....3-4ft of water.

Next thing I do...glance outside

my street is now a lake, my car is surrounded by about half a foot of flowing water.

water subsides by 8am---I open my car to see the damage. About 3 inches of standing brown water all over the floor or my subie. Drivers seat appears dry, but when I push on it water soaks through. I jump in---hold my breath and turn the key. The engine stumbles and shoots water out the exhaust--but it starts...now I have the fun of drying my car out and seeing how bad its gonna stink when it dries. Also, my exhaust sounds weird so im kinda worried about that too...

rain f-ing sucks!

[subwrxkid]

Omg, this happend all over PA? NJ is fine, glad I missed it. Wow, I feel really bad, I woulda been so pissed if water was in my car!

[Broken5hift]

the last time i had food posoining my ass was like niagra falls. so all in all it was pretty entertaining

[S4toSTI]

Your muffler could just be filled that would make it sound different.

Not gonna go into too much detail but i know what u mean.

yeah..downingtown is especially bad because it has the brandywine running through it and its kind of in a little depression so all the water just flows the easiest way it can to the center of town. The easiest way was apparently through my driveway. I will post pics soon.

thats terrible...what did you do with all the water in the basement? did anything down there get damaged?

[WRXD]

will it evaporate or something?

[WRXD]

thats terrible...what did you do with all the water in the basement? did anything down there get damaged?

there wasnt much of anything in the basement but junk. Some of my girlfriends clothes got wet, but I think they are washable.

However--I had TWO stock WRX axlebacks down there that were submerged..they are currently on my back porch trying to dry out. I can still hear water swishing around in there...im f-ing pissed cause one of them I was storing for a friend of mine. My car is at my parents house drying off with the de-humidifier.

Pics to come

good luck with everything...if this helps at all when my family had a flood in our basement or got water damage anywhere (this should work with your car too) we went to modern equipment and rental...the closest one to you is in Uwchland PA on East Township Line Road and rented a Huge high powered fan for a day and it dried out everything without a problem...i duno how much it costs but it definitely gets the job done...

[HickRocket1258]

It is pretty sunny around here. My mom told me that someone went around one of those barracades(sp?) that block one of the flooded roads and got a ticket. I kind of laughed haha. Thank god I don't have to go anywhere that was flooded. Sorry to hear about your car dude.

[Broken5hift]

will it evaporate or something?

yes, my friend had a mugen muffler for his prelude and the stupid thing was angled straight up so everytime i rained his car sounded like **** for a week. eventually we drilled a small hole in the pipe before the muffler for it to drain out. what a peice of **** that was.

so in conclusion, it will go away and thats what the sound is

[WRXD]

Ok here are some pics...

this is what my car looked like parked in the driveway

http://i28.photobucket.com/albums/c204/WRXD/car.jpg

[subwrxkid]

wow, that is nuts!!

[Evo8kid]

i think im gonna go buy a Hummer H1 now

[240sxDann]

maybe I'm just in the eye of the storm or somethin but its hot as balls and sunny here.

[smoger]

2 hour drive for me today,.. and that was because the schyukill was backed up like crazy.. and not even flooded! usually takes me an hour

[MuddyREX]

Holy Crap WRXD, that sucks. Good idea with the dehumidifier though, I never would have thought of that.

I really hope the water doesnt ruin your electrical system, but I have a feeling you are going to run into some problems. Call your insurance company.

[WhiteXFire]

When I drove to Morrisville at 9:30am, traffic was backed up and completely stopped from just past the Oxford Valley exit on Route 1 all the way to TRENTON! I had to get off at Fairless Hills and take Trenton Ave. Then, later in the day, I was on my way to the park and 413 was completely closed before the railroad bridges past 213. I heard a lot of people were evacuated from homes all over the area...
