I've been working since 4pm today using 18 gallon & 12 gallon wet/dry shop vacs to dump the onslaught of rain water Metro Detroit area is getting. My place in Ferndale has the backyard completely submerged, and I've just emptied about 300 or so gallons of water into the wash basin in the basement, desperately trying to keep the flood waters from overwhelming my basement.

Tomorrow, they are forecasting an additional 1-3 inches of rain. Are we sure that 89 year old milkeshake from California wasn't right about the end of the world starting?

How is everyone on this forum holding up? Any stories of woe from the ongoing onslaught?
