I was just looking through some flooding pictures. Has anyone on here been effected by it?

Seattle Times Flooding Pictures

Can you find something cool in the first picture?

 

yeah ive been effected my cars hatch leaks real bad , and my car is filling up with water and flooding haha!!!

 

Not too bad in my city, but nearby there are school closures, highway closures, and lots of traffic due to the flooding. We are talking about between 1-2 hours longer of a commute than usual!! It sucks. Glad I work 6 blocks from my house =)

Something cool would be the 1st Gen in the background I am assuming....??

 

Yah the first gen. They are probably not on the forums though, their garage isn't full of rx-7 parts :-/

 

lol... To go along with the immense amount of rain and flooding, one of the eyesores of our community caught fire yesterday and was completely gutted =) One down, too many more to go!

 

You westsiders got it bad when it comes floods. No flooding on this side of the mountains.
I use to live in north Bend. And in 1990 it was a bad one. I think this years was the worst on record so far not sure thought.

Damm rain,

I just want it to snow, so I can go snowboarding this year.

 

North Bend, Snoqualmie, Duvall, Carnation, pretty much everywhere in the foothills is under water... Especially if the Snoqualmie river runs thru it!! Record water flow over Snoqualmie Falls!!!! And there's more rain coming this weekend

 

I almost thought you beat me to it!
Poor partially submerged GTU...

 

damn how they let that happend id at least drive al lmy cars up to the highest point in my yard haha

 

Its getting bad and I work by the green river another rain storm and its gonna over the road. The other day I thought this little puddle was 1ft deep and I was going to drive through it but some guy stopped me and said its over 4ft deep. Lucky that guy stopped me.

 

whoa....I have been staying away from the local news for the last week becuase of all the annoying political ad's and I had no clue it was flooding

 

The flood of 1996 was bigger/more devestating here in Oregon by far. CJ

 

That poor GTU...

I came uncomfortably close to putting the FB in a ditch the other day when I accidentally drove through a deep puddle. Not fun weather for RX-7s.
+1

 

lol, I love the Eastside. I live right on the columbia, and ya know, if you westerners had more dams you wouldn't flood as bad. Even the Wenatchee river is up high, but not anywhere near as bad as it got before they put the dam in.

 

Oh great idea!! Let's get some dams over here and start laser shows!! Woohoo! I love you eastsiders... Such bright ideas! lol
It's expected to get worse with most of the rivers already at record flood levels... There's another storm coming this weekend!!!!!!

 

Yah I heard about the second storm coming, that definately sux for the west siders ..... That poor GTU!! I know the Yakima River is expected to hit it's peak this morning, it is normally 6 feet, but it will be around 12.

"They say those levels may cause some minor flooding in low lying areas.
Places like the RV park in Benton City may need to be evacuated. " - KNDU-TV

 

Yeah I can't imagine how bad it's gonna be!! Traffic is already horrendous!! It's 11:30 and from what I have been hearing traffic is still a mess! It's backed up all the way into my little town cuz the main highway across the valley to I-5 is the only way out!! The other HWY that runs south is flooded and closed so everyone has to get to I-5 via one, two-lane road...... Traffic is bad enough around here cuz no one drives the speed limit! Now they are cracking down on speeders where no one speeds so they are dozens of police out here now and there is flooding... oh yeah and all this non-stop contruction!! I refuse to go anywhere but work (which is a 30 second drive for me)!! It's terrible! I can't wait to escape this horrid place!! Arizona here I come!

 

some spots up in my area are flooded by the nooksack, and it sucks because i have to take 3 detours on my way to work, but i found my own detour that was sweet in the rain cause it was all corners haha, and i was gonna cross this one part but i used a the truck in front of me as a depth meter and it was over half way up its wheels, that and i saw a suberu start to submerine in it also lol

 

haha yeah I avoid puddles in my FD, my daily driver is a puddle stomper!! I drove thru some flooding with it a few years back and it sucked up a lot of the water and it died in 18" of water on the driver side and even more on the passenger side... It was pretty funny actually! My friends didn't like it though

 

evacuate everyone and let it wash away, white trash to the max there.

 

yea tim how your talking about the valley and everyone having to use I-5. i have to **** in that **** it sucked before and now it sucks even worse.. and it is even longer.. i used to leave my GF's house at 7ish and drive threw no problem.. now even if i wait till 8 it is still backed up.. i just take the backroads into everett and skip all the stuff but it sucks.. ! i wanna move...
