Flooding in New Hampshire

Postby b_a88 on Sun Oct 09, 2005 8:08 pm

Over the last few days there was a huge amount of rain which led to allot of flood all through the state.

Here are some pcicture from WMUR from my town.

This is the river very close to my house, it's a very short walking distance from my house, I can almost see it from my backyard. There is usually rocks showing in the river, the river is atleast 25-30 feet higher than normal there.

One never thinks that NH could ever be flooded like that. :shocked: I hope you and yours are all fine.

Yeah we are all fine, the river is still along ways down in elevation from us even though we can just about see it from our backyard.

There was two people killed in a bordering town when they drove off a washed out bridge, they were both one year younger than me and both went to the same school as I did, I didn't know them but it still seems really close. It's weird hearing the names of towns you know and have been to many times, on national TV.

They said on tv that many areas around here got 10-11 inches of rain from the storm. We are also supposed to get a few more inches of rain in the next few days.
