These pics and vids were taken by my mother today. It shows how bad the flooding has gotten in Fond du Lac, Wisconsin. The river shown has never been as high as I have seen it. They're supposed to be getting more bad storms today and tomorrow.

The Fond du Lac River has never been this high. On average, it's about 3 or 4' deep.... (http://home.nycap.rr.com/sentrosi/FDL%20Flooding/storm%20003.jpg)
As you can tell, it's getting awfully wet there.... (http://home.nycap.rr.com/sentrosi/FDL%20Flooding/storm%20004.jpg)

I suppose this will turn into a mini TDAT thing. Ah, the joys of an ice age on a much larger scale.

We get that sometimes. Our rivers are just fairly deep in my area. Although 2 days ago we had a blackout. And having a blackout when you're in a room without windows or really any light at all is not fun.

Thats when you pop in Pitch Black on your DVD player, provided you have a generator to provide you with power.
