Here's a really good photo blog of the flooding in upstate New York around Binghamton in the aftermath of Hurricane Lee.

The canary didn't die because this mine is dangerous, it died because it's lazy and wasn't raised with a proper work ethic.

Tinker,
That's horrible. I have a few family members that were evacuated today in Wilkes-Barre, PA. Flooding is such a terrible thing--I hope everyone possible never has to go through it. Flooding in 1972 from Hurricane Agnes devastated the Wyoming Valley area and some parts still haven't totally recovered, even now. Prayers to all those unfortunate in this storm.

Condolences.

Typhoon Talas in western Japan was the worst since 1979. Extensive flooding. More than 100 people lost their lives.

Never criticize anyone until you've walked several kilometres in their shoes.
Because
1. You're now several kilometres away; and
2. You've got their shoes.

Yeah, I don't really know anyone directly affected. I got this from a friend of mine whose daughter is at SUNY Binghamton. But the school itself is on high ground. That stadium where people are sleeping is the college arena.

Now I'm far from home
Spending time alone
It's time to set my demons free
Been put to the test
My mind laid to rest
I'm on a psycho holiday

Weird year continues,
April, May - exceptionally hot for the time of year, temps up to 30 degrees, bush fires
June, July, August- early September - utterly crap, wet, cold, had the heating on evenings some days
Now that it nearly October, temperature back up to 29 degrees today, dig out the sunscreen, not a cloud in the sky for three days (that is exceptional here...) . London warmer than Spain in dry southerly wind.

Thailand is experiencing the worst flooding in about 50 years with ~ 260 deaths to date.
Hope that ansuchin and family are okay.
