Call the fire dept. Seriously, I know they were doing rescues in Denham earlier tonight.

I think that they are being rescued right now. I was just on the phone with her and she said she could see a boat coming. They are getting out with what they can carry.

We had called the sheriff's Dept about a half hour ago and they said they'd get to them when they could. This shite is awful.

Any word on Duff Road closer to Walker High or the Lakes at Fenwood? How's the water over there?

Lakes at Fenwood was flooded yesterday afternoon. A few people got water by about 2pm.
