High Water But Minimal Flooding

The photos below are of the Woodland Creek first thing this morning. The top one is of the creek down by the campground. The middle one is from the bridge right before Muddy Brook Road and the last one is of the creek just below the Fawn Hill Bridge (you can see the bridge in the background).

The creek crested at about 8 feet on the gauge. The water was high but I didn't see any major damage along WV road. The asphalt is cracked in a lot of places and there are several new slumps in the road but that had all happened before this last high water event.

Phoenicia itself was pretty quite. The Stony Clove stayed within it's banks this time so the water did not go down Main St. I saw some minor flooding around the edges of town and people seemed to be pumping water from their basements but otherwise all was well.

There were no power or phone outages in the valley as far as I know. The water has receded since this morning and everything seems to have gotten back to normal. So I guess that is all for now.
