Anyways, thank you for the few people who wandered down the bluff and offered help. One guy filled sand bags for 2 hours and did a fantastic job.
One suggestion, if you do not live in Sunnyside and are not there to help directly, please get out of the way. Don't park in the small dry areas and block us trying to get in and out to buy pumps and supplies. Please just park up on the hill and gawk from there.
Now if you want to help please by all means come on down, park and offer. We may not need you right now, but your offer is heart felt appreciated. Thanks again.

I too live in Sunnyside. Spent the day on 5th Street and will be back there today. Every house on the east side of Sunnyside (East of 5A street) appears to have wet basements. We had pumps and generators running out of nearly every house.
