I think driving a Mustang would bother me more than the pump and lack of exhaust. LOL. Just kidding dude.....I have no dissing rights since I use to rock out a 99 Civic SiR and I thought it was a rocket....haha those were the days. I love the sound of Mustangs.....exhaust or no exhaust....my favorite sounding muscle car!

 

Is this going to happen with everything that's going on up there right now?!

 

I dunno Don but you're right, it doesn't look good at the moment. Supposed to keep raining there for several more days at least

 

The Flash Flood Warning has been lifted for the time being.

 

You boys in the Bing and surrounding areas, I will you well. Saw some pictures this morning and it wasnt good.

 

i talked to jeremy, and his family and property is fine.. but the town itself is going thru a mess right now.. kinda like we did here in Vermont only i really hope its not as bad.. i live right near killington where we lost most of route 4 and route 100.. only 1 road still out of my town.. my facebook has some pretty messed pictures on it if you guys care to look.. pretty sure its facebook.com/buddy.herron

hope everyone else in the Bing area is doing ok.. i know all too well what youre going through..

 

Seems like things are tough all over. Damn! Every ones pics are showing a pure mess.

PA people how are you guys holding up?

 

From what I heard, PA got it hard too. Pat said last night his army unit was on standby to deploy to Wilkes-Barre. Our region got its collective *** slaughtered. Water levels are receding but no idea when it'll all be cleaned up. BAE Systems, where Bill, Keith, and I work, is inundated with water. If it's drained enough by Sunday, they'll send in a team to assess the damage and start cleanup. Doubt we'll work til the later half of next week. I'm going for a drive soon to see how things are progressing. The three of us were lucky and had minimal personal impact on our properties, but we all know a lot of people who lost some or all of their possessions, including two women that I work with, both of whom live five minutes from me (off of 12A, the road you guys turn onto at the Hess, off Front St, to get to my house).

 

Thankfully, I too, am fine. I know several people in Conklin who lost everything. This was worse than 2006, and after that happened, people swore that floods like that happened once every 100 years. I call bullshit. Any way, I have some pictures to share with you guys. These were all taken on Thursday between 11 and noon, things got much worse after this.



This is two pix side by side. Notice the fire hydrant on the right? The picture on the left was taken 20 minutes later, and the hydrant is gone. So the water rose about 7-8 inches in 20 minutes

If anyone is curious what happened here, this'll give you the gory details:
