We had a few inches of snow again last night, then heavy rain all day today
with warming temperatures. With the ground still frozen, everything is
flooding. I just took a quick ride around town and couldn't believe the
number of washed out roads, cranberry bogs that are flooding across the
streets and yards turned into lakes.
We had snow before the rain - lots of water.
They shut down the Rt 44 bridge in Putnam because it was vibrating
from all the water moving through.
Last time that happened, they had the Great Flood of 1955.
The stream that feeds my pond passed it's banks around 4 PM and I had
to open the dam at the far end of the pond to release water - going
out to take a look in another half hour or so.
Going to leave the gates open for another couple of hours in case you
were wondering.
Lot of water moving through.
