Holy cow, what a storm! There were little branches all over the treets and a construction barricade blown over. And standing water out to the middle of streets. There was a semi blown over on the freeway.

I was at first made because if I'd left the house on time I would have beaten it to work, but then I realized I had a lot of flood contol to do at home. I had to put a bucket under where the leak is by the basement stairs, and pick the fan up off the floor in the basement where the water might pour in. And re-hook one of the downspouts outside.

My driveway was standing water and it's on an incline.

Edit: I heard Saukville, just north of here, had 100 mph winds.

Ugh, water in basements ... that's the worst.

I've got a low spot just outside one of the windows, and when the water gets high enough it drains through the window.
