How High's the Water Momma? June 14, 2010 |
|
We had ourselves a flood one Monday morning in
June. Here are my attempts to document it. |
|
I had just driven through this intersection minutes before NewsOK.com took this picture. I had been trying to get to the gym for Spin class but gave up. |
This is the little creek/drainage ditch near our house in the park. |
This is the metal railing on other side of that same bridge, I have a picture below of this bridge in normal times. | This is another bridge in our park. The water is normally nowhere even close to it. |
Same bridge, other side | This is one of the main roads, fairly near our house (26th & Western-ish) This picture came from the NewsOK.com web site. |
To give some perspective, here are some scenes of the same areas in
non-flood conditions: |

In this picture of non-flood times, I am standing at the metal rail I show flooded above. | This squirrel sits on the edge of the other bridge, and you can see that
there's normally only a trickle of water down below. |
