Are there any spots where Route 12 is closed? I am going to leave the office in a few and head up to Wisconsin. I was going to take 12 up.

this thing is dropping epic amounts of water, sheets of it blowing at hurricane speed, what does Algonquin/Woodstock look like?

Why is it that sandbags always have to be filled, where are all the sandbags from previous flooding events. I would think it would save time and money to hoard them, especially if you live in an area where flooding happens.

I truly do feel for all you guys up north. Good luck and hope the rain stays away.

We got only a tenth of a inch in FRG from the first blast. Looks like Elgin and Schaumburg got nailed.

From what I understand the bags are biodegradable and do not last unless you keep them inside or something.

If anyone doesn't know the Algonquin dam is a few hundred feet downriver of this location.

 

[IceCreamAssassin]

That would be interesting to watch. Seriously sucks how much this has hurt people and their stuff.

 

[cdh027]

Holy crap, what was the outcome of this?

 

[willsmysticcobra]

Man it's bad , I just rode my bike to port Edwards and I've never dreamed the boats would be nearly flush with the parking lot ...

 

[Yaj Yak]

Going to peep the shit storm of comments

my FB-don't-post-things-just-read-them filter was down cuz i was a few beers deep and my fingers hit a lot of posts with the fury. so many morons on that fb page it's insane.

a few of them must have been deleted though because i went to read them today and couldn't find them.

 

[OffshoreDrilling]

I can't find the post either. Social justice warriors anonymous

 

[Yaj Yak]
