Wow Sorry to hear about the flooding Nathan.
Is there any way to get some pumps from garage to higher ground to get the water out?
Got some pics for insurance/here? Freezing, windy not good...oh wow.
There were some very strong storms including tornadoes in a huge front line across central and southern, mid west, heading towards the coast now I believe.
Link and recent news video /story:
Killer storms, tornadoes hit South, Midwest
Be safe out there folks.

As long as I have lived here I have gotten water in my garage.

This picture is around the same spot as yesterdays, and around the same time.

How much recent snow fell? 6"? More on the way too..?
That semi was on a straight away. Possibly changing lanes, with speed/ ice sure does not help.

I think that was around Benton harbor and St.Joseph that area had maybe 4" when I was driving through the storm. There is a chance for more snow. The lake effect off Lake Michigan is in full force right now.
