Looks like the Wallkill has crested at 11.5' in Middletown, its sitting right at the apex now, we'll see how long it takes to drop. https://waterdata.usgs.gov/monitoring-location/01370520/#parameterCode=00065&period=P7D
2.40” with yesterdays storm, 2.65” for the week. The Wallkill is the highest it’s been for at least a year around here, I zoomed in on the previous peaks and confirmed, and it’s still rising.
The part of my driveway that also serves as the road to the boat launch has an about half a dozen serious potholes on top of part of it getting washed out the other night, the boys are planning to get to it early next week. Lots of open jobs out there these days. Kudos to you for being part of the solution and not part of the problem.
Hi there Rich. Please see some of the worst drawing you've ever seen on a screenshot below which will hopefully help in illustrating how its done:
1) Click on the + sign next to the quote button (photo 1)
2) Once you hit the + sign it will change to a checkmark and then down in the right-side corner you'll see a button appear that says "Quote 1 post" For each post you hit the + sign that number will go up. (photo 2)
3) After you have check marked all the posts you want to quote then simply hit that button in the lower right. One thing to also note is that button on the lower right will stay there as you move from thread to thread so you can quote posts from various threads. Whatever thread you are in at the time you hit the button in the lower right is where all the quoted posts will appear. I use it a lot to quote a post from the monthly thread here for example, like I did with Liberty's post this morning. So in addition to quoting multiple posts its way to quote just one post and "move it to banter" as you may have seen Mods post before.
Up to 1.16” for the event and raining again now. There was one incredible clap of thunder when the storm came through last night, woke both me and the bride up, it seemed to just keep going and going.
Here's another fire that led to changes, required sprinklers: https://cardboardamerica.org/2016/12/05/city-in-ruins-stouffers-inn-fire-december-4-1980/ Sorry I'm going down memory lane here plus this weather is miserable anyway, 42 with .47” since last night
Hi Rich! As a child is was always a treat when Dad would set up either the slide or film projector. Sometimes we'd watch family things but often is was fire related stuff. I had this film pretty much memorized as a kid and I was pleasantly surprised to just find it on YouTube but it won't let me post it here because it says something about age restriction but this is the title if anyone is looking to kill some time and the link doesn't work:
