Lost power at about 8am yesterday, and still with out power today
got any pics? from what i’ve seen castleton has seen flooding this bad since 1913
Didnt get any but, you know when youreDriving down 9j from rensselaer…its literally all the way up to 9j. About 6 inchs from it when i was down there at 5pm. The roads To the nature presurves were all flooded, rail road tracks under water etc. All the new pumps and electrical stations are all under water too.
No, not probably. Definitely! I am part of the store technical support team, it’s absurd what we stay open for. There’s been several instances where people have driven through the building and even ran over the ATM… they don’t skip a single beat, they just keep operating like normal. :lol
yea i dated the girl who’s family owns the house and land (stats) and the place was an awesome time capsule of once of the first family’s in that area. kinda sad cause it;s most likely completely destroyed right now
I have personally witness this TWICE(duanesburg and rt103 shops). Ex-step father was/is district manager for the area.
Past the village?
Made a valiant attempt to get to my shop today. Being ~350ft+ above all this shit I know it’s dry, but no matter where I went shit was closed. Headed down some backroads to rt5 and 103 was closed. There’s no fucking way in hell you could have paid me enough to cross lock 9 on the mowhawk today. That bridge looked like a lego toy in comparison to the river flow. People were pulle dover all over 890 today looking at the waterline between lock 8-7 and the stockade. I passed through scotia to Hunts, weaver ave by GE flooded well into BFI and under 890 overpass. I ran over a few cones to cut through an area(that was dry) to get to the machine shop as they had the broadway exits closed down.
I only wish I had my camera. Rt 5 into amsterdamn was shut down. I just turned the fuck around and went home, then decided to pick up 87 into colonie for the day. went to my moms on broadway in W.vleit to pick up the HHR in case she had to evacuate. Water was under 787 through the bike path tunnels but still ~10 feet below the broadway roadline at her location, but only ~20 feet from the doorstep. The armory apparently was flooded just ~1/4 mile down the road.
Shits’ crazy.
send the pictures via sms message to my email and I’ll host/post them for you. sent a pm
I’m feeling lucky and thankful that I’m only a little bit north of you guys, but didn’t get hit nearly as bad by this storm.
Well I live in bspa(exit 12) and we got dick as well. hardly and trees down in our area.
Just got power back a few hours ago, its been out since saturday night.
Heres some pics off of FB
Turtle rock cafe in Middleburgh
Priddle Rd in Burtonsville.
My boss was down here last night, they were watching houses float down the schoharie creek and slam into the bridge taking it out piece by piece.
Mill Valley Rd.
Heres Junction Rd (Central Bridge), about 3 miles from my house, i went down here today and checked it out in person, The damage was ridiculous. See that bridge? THE WATER LINE ON THE STEEL WAS 10 FEET ABOVE THE ROAD…WTF
Esperance Cemetary.
Schoharie Valley at 7am this morning
Same valley at 6pm sunday night
Esperance Bridge
I also read earlier that the old as fuck blenhiem covered bridge was spotted floating through esperance around midnight last night
It’s insane. I’m not even sure I can get 10 miles from here yet. Rumor is two city Deprtment of Public Works guys (father and son) are dead after being swept away. I have tomorrow off so I’m going to see where I can go and bring my camera along. Most of the roads that are washed out they just barely put back in service this year from being washed out in 2008. This really fuckin’ sucks…
I have a spare room or two if you need to get out of VT lol.
Some more…
145 heading into middleburg
Heres my buddy lol he made it in the TU with this pic
I don’t even know if I could get to the next town west of here lol.
Here’s a house on the other side of the juction rd bridge that Gatville has a picture of
IDK what the deal was yesterday but there were troopers everywhere on route 9 by the bridge right before crecent road, also about 8 of them whithin a mile and half of them on the Twin bridges… Not sure what they were expecting because at that point I had heard the barge was secured.
