Up But Not Over

The rain continued all day yesterday and through the night. It came down heavily at times as Tropical Storm Lee passes through the area. I just drove down out of Woodland Valley to Phoenicia and I am happy to report that, while the water was very high again, the Woodland Creek had not jumped it's banks.

Main Street Phoenicia was also dry. The low lying areas of the town were under a voluntary evacuation order this morning. At this point I think people feel that it is better to be safe than sorry. As everyone holds their collective breathe to see what will happen later today, I am happy to say that so far everything is wet but fine.
