    any damage from southwestern USA floods?

    Did any of the southwestern US Rabble suffer any damage from the recent heavy rains and snow? I saw weather reports for your area and they looked pretty scary.

    We stayed afloat in Peoria, thanks for asking. This is the firstday that we haven't had to wipe the dogs down every time they come in- i think we have finally caught up on all the towels. Fortunately, no major damage in our area this time around.
    Regards,

    No worries. The scariest thing about the weather was the drivers on the road. As one of my student could say: "OMG! DFO, its just RAIN FYI"

    A bit of a roof leak from the rain and melting snow...nothing heavy...and it was nice enough to drip over the kitchen sink. Guessing the flashing around the heat pump on the roof needs resealing.

    Three feet of snow after two real nasty days. I stayed off the mountain due to student teaching and having meetings early in the morning. Too many idiots who believe having four wheel drive means one can drive as fast as they want in the snow.
