The Observation Deck

This caught my eye last night. After many "Flood Warnings" this "A Real Flood Warning"
Came over the phone.

I thought it was a joke until this morning...


A heron at the new lake.


The new big lake!


The 4-Fields, also home to Lakewood Soccer Association. It was the river today.


The roadway covered with the river. Never go through these, but I had a guy come up and say,
"I just went through this, follow me before you get locked in with the water rising!




The 2nd ford unrecognizable, as the river went farther over its banks thank I can remember.


The river right up to the road.



More rain coming tonight!

.

AS the rains continue, the river has gone back up to the levels of two days ago. Nearly as high as I can remember it.


The red circle highlights the markings on the bridge, for when the water treatment plant floods. It was placed high
enough back in the day to be above hundred year floods. As you can see we are close and with 3 days of rain forecasted
it could take us to that height. The red straightedge outline is where Rocky River wanted the dog park moved.

Metro Parkway is still closed.
