I took pictures of the river by my house- it's about 7 times it's size and raging out of control. If you were to fall in, you would not survive.

Anyone want to go for a bike ride!?. The normal river is only about 10 feet across and knee deep. Now it is acres across and waist high plus deep.

If you look closely at the bridge in the background, those two tunnels under the bridge would be far more exposed. This river is about 5 feet deeper than normal.
Then, the river drops down the dam:

River flowing away from waterfall, under the road

River on the other side of the road from the waterfall, that small bike path usually runs 1/2 under the bridge, now it's totally submersed

Branch off of river

The parking lot of the doctors office across the street from us is 1/2 flooded. Look closely at the picture, see the little white strip popping out between the trees? That's where the normal river is, which is normally about 20 feet across and knee deep- not anymore.

And it's just going to get worse....:(
