Wilmington for the most part faired well! The beaches surrounding us and downtown area by the river on the other hand took a good beating and flooding but everyone is staying positive on saying "It could have been far worse".Hope you guys are all OK! All my friends at UNCW tell me that the campus is having a voluntary evacuation (although only a few people I know seem to have actually left!) I was there during the hurricane last year but it wasn't nearly as bad as this. I was outside tumbling in it!!
My mom dug a trench too! It's because we sorta live on/IN a small hill (like the main part of my house sits on top of the hill, we have a back deck that gives us some flat area where the hill slopes down, and the front half of my basement is underground while the back half isn't because the back is where the hill is lower)..so when it rains tons we get really flooded in the basement. My backyard already looks like a pond in some parts..But the winds have started a blowin'! I'm staring at the tree outside my window and hoping it doesn't come crashing into my roof 'cause I'd probably die or get seriously injured. No really, it's a big tree. The kind you don't want falling on your leg or chest cavity.
For those of you who aren't familiar with snowstorms, this is like us mocking you when you cry over 2 inches of snow.
Speaking of camping, there was a man in Pennsylvania who went camping in a tent last night. A tree fell on him and killed him. So sad.And this is why I don't go camping. Bc it sucks.
The Route 72 part is in Bristol - my town. And also in Bristol 2 people decided to go canoeing & one of them drowned....so sad.Adding- Found out a man in CT died due to a down power line, and two kids tried to kayak down one of the streets in the next town over. One is missing.. Also all of Rt 72 is/was basically underwater. Not that you know where that is lol..but man. Sucks..
I saw on Facebook a video of Nuchie's and Garnish and all that stuff in Forestville..it's a complete RIVER. Heard Mix St was awful too, and I've got to head to SP today to help my mum with VB practice. Hope it's cleared :(The Route 72 part is in Bristol - my town. And also in Bristol 2 people decided to go canoeing & one of them drowned....so sad.
You know, it really bothers me that people are saying this was just a thunderstorm, or it was just some rain.
