Still haven't been evacuated and I don't think I will be. They are obviously shipping out everyone that is on the river. I've cleared out the basemen of all valuable stuff and informed my cat she may have to take a car ride with me tonight (she wasn't impressed).
The amazing thing is how dumb people are. There is a swinging bridge across the river down here (some may know the bridge I'm referring too) and people were folling around on it earlier. DUMB!
I wish people would just stay away from the affected areas - at least with their cars. The police are trying to get things organized and there's a ton of cars from people just coming to take a peek.
Incidently the house I live in was my grandma's house built in 1931. My mom grew up in the house and by her recollection doesn't recall the river ever getting like this. Her older sister agreed. Pretty interesting to think this is probably a once every 50 years type of thing.
