Some Water
by balleman on Sep.19, 2004, under Happenings
We had a thrilling evening on Friday… watching the radar tracking of a possible tornado heading in our direction. Public service frequencies were reporting damage in the area of Oakville, not far away, but that seems to have been the closest. On Saturday, water was the problem. By the afternoon, you wouldn’t be getting to my place by Mountain Road (its bridge was flooded up to the ‘yeild’ signs), Quigley Road (it was flooded… never had seen that before), 696 (it was flooded beside its bridge) or 641 (the water was deck-level, and was flowing across the road next to the bridge). As of Sunday morning, however, all routes were again passable. No real problems here as a result. Playing movies on the new handheld helped to keep me occupied ;).
