This excessive insane rain is reminding me of September 5, 1979 when we had 6 foot high creek floods next to Pitkin's in Dale City, in Center Plaza. I live right behind, in west Glendale

If only I could muster up the courage to go on an historic jebwalk down there.

There is simply too much rain

from MARC:

Brunswick: Montgomery County officials have requested a hold on rail movements in the Germantown area due to a threat of a track washout

from an overflowing lake. Marc trains will hold at the closest rail station. MARC is attempting to arrange bus transportation.

congrats!
