Update from Flood Central!!!!
Now I know how Noah felt!
Everything is peachy keen from flood central. The water on the Harpeth rose to 5 1/2 feet above the 100 year flood plain which is 2 1/2 feet above the 500 year flood plain and the Corp of Engineers "Never Flood" area on their maps. Fortunately for me my first floor elevation on my house is 7 feet above the 100 year flood plain. I have another 1 1/2 feet of water space to go!
The basement garage and the garage on the other side of the house flooded. The basement garage got about 8 feet of water. All the cars were moved. The shop flooded with about 4 feet of water. 2 cars were on the lifts and were fine. Other than a bunch of floating junk were fine.
Carl, Brian and Mark were all over here today along with some other helpers. Thanks a bunch guys for ALL YOUR HELP!!!!
The basement garage and the shop are now clean and free of mud. Most of the junk is washed down and cleaned. I am probably the only guy in Nashville with 2 dumpsters delivered today for the cleaning project. My wife said to clean the garage last week so I did!
We made the national news with a horse rescue across the culdisac. LOT's of local arial coverage. No water in the house. 3 of 5 heat and air units got wet. We will check them out tomorrow. Bubba called yesterday and asked what I needed. I said a generator, gas and beer. The BOAT arrived a couple of hours later with all the supplies.
My mobile phone is dead and this is the first internet I have had. More to come!!!!
