Throwback: Flooding in the 70s

As we have had more rain so far this month than the last 103 Julys combined, I thought it would be a good time to show some photographs of the flooding in prior years.

Remember this El Nino year is actually heating up to a big degree (more to come on that) and you should start planning on how to deal with flooding now, rather than when it happens!
