Here in Franklin, Indiana last year we had a couple of storms that created terrible flooding. I found myself volunteering for sandbag duty trying to save court house paperwork and equipment. I hope you’re above water. It sucks when your basement water level is almost to the top of the stairs. | ||
| Whatever |
That storm came through at work in Baraboo Wisconsin this afternoon. We had a tornado touch down on the installation about 1/2 mile from our building (at Badger Army Ammo Plant) had to go to the basement, twice even. Why is there always some idiot that runs outside to take a look? When a man wearing a side arm comes by and tells you to get in the basement, you get in the basement.  | ||

sometimes soldiers forget they are uncle sams property. Welcome to Geneva Convention | ||
| Whatever |
We are all civilians (200 plus contractors), except for the three Army... who are in charge of the 25 or so that carry the guns (and only the Army Squirrel Killer was in today)... but I still did busta' move...  | ||

I am cleanup- environmental scientist. It was the largest Munitions Components plant during WWII... the plant shut down at the end of Vietnam... some pretty cool info here... http://www.badgerordnancehistory.org/ | ||

Hahaha. Way too much rain going on around here this year. Spoke with my Dad the other day, he figures he has at least 30 acres of crops that are flooded out. | ||

If it's any consolation it's been persisting down here all week too. | ||

I just got into Roanoke, VA after a week in Dubuque, IA. Tornados etc screwed up air traffic all over the midwest the past few days. Madison had 6" of rain from 7 pm-10 pm and three tornados touch down at or close to the airport. Dubuque, my old hometown, had 8" of rain last night and up to 2' of flood waters on some streets. Der. it's been wet out there, eh? | ||

Be sure to look up the 20 foot sink hole that opened up in milwaukee yesterday and swallowed an suv and the intersection stop lights  | ||
| Spiderman |
I hope Wandell was inside! | ||

I was watching the sinkhole thing last night. In the early shots, there was a water main dumping on the suv. I wonder where all the materials inside the sinkhole went.  | ||
