Actually, it is a good thing I left it open at the backend where it comes under the road, otherwise it would have flooded the road! /w3tcompact/icons/shocked.gif

<font color=red>flash flood warning for: greene county in pennsylvania
Until 445 pm edt
At 1249 pm edt, national weather service radar indicated heavier rain continuing over greene county pennsylvania into late afternoon. Locations getting over one and a half inches of rain can develop flooding in areas with poor drainage, and along small streams.
Locations in the warning include, GRAYSVILLE, rogersville, and waynesburg.
do not drive your vehicle into areas where the water covers the roadway. The water depth may be too great to allow your car to cross safely. Vehicles caught in rising water should be abandoned quickly. Move to higher ground.
Expires: 4:45 PM EDT 06/06/02</font color=red>
Just got this off of our local channels website. I live about 2 miles out of Graysville.

I got my new 4710 a little over 2 weeks ago. I've been able to put only about 1 hour seat time on it due to all the rain in upstate New Yiork over the past two weeks. Just last couple days I thought things were drying out. Now, last night, we had such an incredible amount of rain, most I've ever seen fall in so short a time period. Now have a creek running through my basement....this only happens in March after winter snows melt....never this late in the Spring season. Sadly, it looks like that 4710 will be sitting outside my breakfast room window just a bit longer until the upstate NY monsoon season ends. /w3tcompact/icons/sad.gif

Ed,
You better keep an eye open tonight and see how the weather does. If there is a bright side, it looks like you have photo’s of the worst case scenario which may help you plan for drainage in the future.
Good luck,

ED; appears u ain't going to be cutting any grass or doing any tractor work either.if we could take some of that extra water and sell it we could be rich/w3tcompact/icons/smile.gif some of our fellow tbnrs are just dying to have some.
