yup - I'll be cleaning up after this storm.. Creek came up - flooded the basement.. Not good..

 

[Moe Ghoul]

Minor amount of water in the basement here, I had the foresight to elevate EVERYTHING in my basement off the floor when I remodeled it 5 years ago, so no damage. Wet n dry shop vac and a little bleach and done. Gonna start playing around with my PuderLuder/Jondrum binding inserts for that sweet swapability feature.

Friday, work from home, safety meeting, and heading out to dinner with some friends later.
Saturday, not much going on. I want to start planning out a full basement remodel.

his was a very bad storm here in NNY

We had 5 inches here in NNY

I spent most of the afternoon and last nite BAILING out Had to go buy a 6 hp wet dry vac with pumping capability . Had several inches in the basement in 2 separate areas about 10 ft long X 3 ft wide . It was coming so hard and fast for 12 hrs in a row that my 3 hp wet vac couldn't keep up with it . As soon as i 'd finish it was flooded again at a depth of about 1 - 1.5 inches

. The furnace and all appliances and any storage areas are all on platforms so nothing is at risk .My floor drain line was a godsend and did its thing ---but finally around 10 pm the storm shifted east we're dry today . Luckily it was limited to these 2 major spots and not the entire basement ., which by the way is strictly a basement not living space . Schools all over the area are closed . roads are flooded

This is the second storm of this ferocity in a month -- C'mon winter DAMMIT

Probably pulling the boat off its mooring this weekend. Going to be in Ireland for the next 2 weekends, then in Tennessee, so it'll be November before we could go out on the boat again, and it'll probably be too chilly then.

A couple of my friends are doing the rugged maniac race. I might go watch, the course is about 5 minutes from my house.
