Raging river ~ In The Flume - in the Adirondack PARK • click to embiggenAs mentioned in yesterday's entry I went out and about with the intent of picturing the high water that has been the result of intense Spring rains. The pictures posted with this entry are a few of the results.
After another night and early AM rains, the rivers, streams, ponds, and lakes are at even higher levels today than they were yesterday. Roads are closed - some have been washed away - all over the regions. Bridges have collapsed and some have been swept away. Needless to say, flooding of homes and businesses is extensive.
While the rain has been intense, melting snow - aided by the rain and warm weather - has greatly compounded the issue. And, there is even more rain expected tonight and tomorrow.

From a sense of humor (the arrows image) to a sense of beauty (the light falling on the tree) top notch images.
