The Great Flood aka Armageddon

[pyjamapants]

This is shaping up to be an... interesting trip.

Mr. PJ is sick.

Gomez woke me up three times during the night with emergency pottying... Twice in absolutely pouring rain. I am grateful again for the ankle brace. My boot would have been completely waterlogged.

And the city is flooded. Here's a picture of one of the interstates (they all have closures at this point). Here's a photo of one of them... where cars are FLOATING. 

ETA: Also, now poor Gomez has sicked up.

And rest of post renders any of my complaints entirely petty.



I am happy to hear that my brother is safe and sound home from work.

An updated photo.



More pictures under the cut




I watched a mobile unit from a local school floating down the interstate. No pictures yet. It disintegrated within minutes.



Mobile home photo (thanks Mr. PJ!)



And here's a video of what happened to it

This barrier won't be holding much longer...



I am terrified for these emergency workers...



And they've taken the camera down... not a good sign

One death reported so far at I-24 and Bell Road (above pics).
