I caught news this morning that my old town in New Hampshire, Keene, is under water. They say, and show pictures of, the downtown area being under some water. (Not the full 4 feet) but what I can't figure out is that there is a neighborhood about 10-15 lower than downtown just down the street. With that flooding in down town, it would seem to me that houses are over the roof with water.

I also hear we got some major flooding in New Jersey and PA.

hosmer · 10-10-2005, 09:29 AM

I saw 4 cars at one intersection that were vaporlocked from trying to drive through the water on Saturday night. Providence is basicaly one big hill and this was on one of the bottom streets...the only things that really save us is we're on the ocean and have a river that flows through downtown

Right now I have my car parked up on the sidewalk to keep it out of the rain today (My work is also on a hill)

pissedoffsol · 10-10-2005, 09:33 AM

we got a lot of rain this weekend, but nothing drastic.
i heard the merit pky had a lot of standing water on it... but other than that, nothing serious

dveit · 10-10-2005, 10:07 AM

[img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/werd.gif[/img] It pretty much downpoured ALL weekend here. No flooding though, thank god.

pissedoffsol · 10-10-2005, 10:33 AM

round 2 is on its way up the coast right now...

phyregod · 10-10-2005, 11:42 AM

I've got it all figured out.

The united states is sinking slowly, and in 500 years will be gone. So we are pwning the middle east one small country at a time to start developing "United states 2".. It takes alot of work to turn a desert into a neighborhood.

Or.. not..

Keene was settled in a dry river bed, that's why. about 4 feet under that top soil, you'll find sand.

Water can't get any lower than Keene.

reckedracing · 10-10-2005, 12:57 PM

we got between 10 and 12 inches of rain by me over the weekend

the weekend fucking sucked as far as working

got a chance to be out on sunday but no sun and still drizzling

nothing like being in a tin roofed garage when its pouring all weekend long...
the noise was much worse before it was insulated...

Dustin_m · 10-10-2005, 02:16 PM

It's sunny here, and warm [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/tongue.gif[/img]

hosmer · 10-10-2005, 02:34 PM

I guess we gotta get something besides the occasional blizzard

the south gets hurricanes
the west coast has earthquakes
central US has tornados

Celerity · 10-10-2005, 02:50 PM

We have Yuppies. That's a natural disaster I'll trade any of those areas for.

Except California. There are ... what... 134998273--7166~~~ 98898 reasons that place sucks.

Seany-izzle · 10-10-2005, 02:53 PM

This winter is gonig to be the winter from hell...if hell was cold, icey, snowy, and windy... i predict worse winter for NE.

i have no basis for this, my only basis is that things are getting fucked up in the world faster and more frequently.

hosmer · 10-10-2005, 03:04 PM

You couldn't pay me enough to move to CA

worst state ever

Celerity · 10-10-2005, 05:20 PM

Do you know what kind of cars are under water, in those garages ?

-> Steve

Seany-izzle · 10-10-2005, 06:06 PM

4 feet of water in downtown keene. Some boats at the marina on the Connecticut River got loose and went about 10 miles down river and went over the Vernon dam. (Vernon is a town in southern vt). A house in Hinsdale NH (town below keene, steve if youve ever been there...im sorry) had a house collapse down a bank...into a stream. Ive been told that people were LITERALLY kayaking down main street in Keene.

Celerity · 10-10-2005, 10:22 PM

<shudder>... yeh.. Hinsdale, Incestor (Winchester) Troy, all those places. Yup.

Now, main street Keene was under 4 feet of water...but my sister used to live down the hill from main street - those houses are the really flooded ones.

EDIT: Down the hill from Don and Dave's wings

Seany-izzle · 10-11-2005, 12:19 AM

mmmmmmm daves wings.... yeah i dunno bout that one lol, but thats what ive been told from my roommate (was in Brattleboro this weekend, my parents, and a few friends who heard it on the news). God, incestor is teh fucking worst place on the planet, well next to Hinsdale.... Seriously, its one huge trailor park with 3 roads with actual houses.

Celerity · 10-11-2005, 12:27 AM

The mayor has plumbin'

With NH property taxes, no wonder people live like that. I don't mind any town in NH anymore... If you want to hate life, try living in MA, CT, NY, NJ, OH, FL, IN, KS, MS.....

Yeah, I spent some of my formative years in NH. By Formative I mean the year that I was homeless, pissed off, and chronically unemployed. I moved in with my dad in Norwalk CT in the dives and slept on the couch in the basement and was loving life.

Bill Clinton spoke from my front porch (I lived upstairs from Pitchfork Records). Also, I helped to create Sover.net (God I hope you don't know Chris Gann)

Seany-izzle · 10-11-2005, 12:30 AM

Nope, cant say i do. And ive only really lived in vt (in nh for about 3 years.. ages 1-3), ive been to all those places, but its different to live there and visit there. you sayin livin in vt is good then?? lol

Celerity · 10-11-2005, 12:34 AM

I would love to live in VT. If I could find some decent pay, I would sign up in a heartbeat.

My wife wants to get back to CO ASAFP.

E_SolSi · 10-11-2005, 04:22 AM

heard on the radio today the CT river is supposed to reach 15ft over normal levels... thats 7 ft above spill over
that means if you live near the CT river you will be under water

learn to swim

TurboMirage · 10-11-2005, 08:38 AM
