So tropical storm Fay has been raising the water levels in Melbourne for quite a while now and we have gained about 10 inches so far.
I've lived in Florida for all but one of the 19 years I've been alive and I have seen way worse on the damage and size scale, but this is the first time that I have seen a lot of evidence in flooding.
The river near us has risen close to 5 feet and it is flowing at about 10 miles an hour. We also have a 3 foot river where there was previously an open grass area.

Like I've said, it could have been way worse but this is the only time I've been in a flash flood area so it's pretty cool to see everything change with water.
Chase: the only refuge i have from my mom is when i go to my gf's
Me: I have no gf, just palmela handerson
Chase: Well at least you aren't a double amputee.

Just so long as your living room furniture configuration isn't changed with it.

Well that's funny because we have two inches of water covering our kitchen in the dorm and we are on the second floor.
