The Great Rhode Island Flood of 2010

[primroseburrows]

Providence, mostly (I think) Atwells Avenue. Annoying bad panning is annoying:

Warwick Mall, about ten minutes away from me:

Local flooding in Cranston and Warwick:

Things are a little better now (the sun is out, yay!) but parts of 95 and other places are still closed. And I really don't know when the Warwick Mall will be able to reopen.

I was thinking about you when I watched the news. How are you yourself doing? Everything dry in your house?

Right now I'm living on the third floor of an apartment building so we're okay. We've been told not to flush or shower unless we have to, but otherwise I haven't had a problem. I was on Block Island for the majority of the rainstorm, which didn't really have a problem at all because there aren't any rivers there.

There was a lot of flooding no more than two miles away, though. I've been very lucky.

Also, apparently Janet Napolitano is coming to RI to look at the damage.
