Holy Shit, we got a ton of rain for the past 3 days. Like Greenie said in another thread, we had some serious flooding just down the road from us. So, I understand why the Village turned off all the electricity for the emergency. But, around noon today, the skys cleared, the mud started to turn to dust and the dust started to blow away. I called the electric company at around 2PM and asked when the power would be back on. They told me that they had to wait until all basements were pumped dry. I mentioned that the correct way to do it might be to turn off the power to the 10 homes with their basements flooded. We just watched the power company come by and flip on our transformer...woohoo.
More rain is expected tonight. A lot of homes have been evacuated and we have a red cross center up the street. Wait till you see the pictures I took. I heard bad things happened at my old house
