Hurricane Update:

Well, my backyard in Florida is almost completely under water, and once the sun comes up, I’ll be trying to siphon the water into the nearest drain…but sadly our retention ditches have been full since noon yesterday - winds starting to get really bad here.

And my next door neighbor in Alabama (we still have our house there, we just rent it out) just had an oak tree go through his roof - 6 months after they finished a full gut renovation of the house.

Figured I might as well throw on the SRs and prepare for anything.

**also have my fishing waders in my living room if needed

Thanks Adam -
I’m sure we will be fine, these things are just always scary as anything can happen at any time.

Good luck buddy.. Between the hurricanes at one end of the country and the wildfires at the other it all seems a little grim over the pond at the minute  :o

Midwest checking in with civil unrest, riots, calls to defund the police, looting and basic chaos.

Thanks gentlemen! After a day of pumping water off our lot, a think we are down to only 4-6 inches at the high spots, and probably only about 40% of the ground under the house is wet…

Hoping a little sunshine will take care of the rest!

Job well done @Appfaff !

[Appfaff]

Thanks guys - I was smart to dedicate the day to drying out what we could - woke up to little to no standing ground water this morning - although a lot of small debris from my pine and magnolia trees.

My neighbors who acted like I was crazy yesterday pumping and transporting water are still surrounded by ground water.

Over prepare + over react = protect your assets.

Well done.

Crazy what a little 1/2HP pump could do!
