So today on my way home from the school I got stuck in flooding water. After detouring 100 times I finally found higher ground at the James Coney Island parking lot, where I stayed at for 4 hours. It was insane. The flooding was so bad that Robby took off work to find me and got stuck himself at a shell station (which was higher ground for him) about 5 miles from me.

I am sure when we venture out tomorrow there will be a lot of cars left behind. So many people thought they could make it through the streets and ended up stalling out. Not fun.

These are some pictures from my phone, so they are kind of blurry.
