Just checking in to make sure all forum members in the Midwest are safe and dry. For those of you in other parts of the country (and world), this area was hit very hard over the weekend. Our area received 8-11" of rain in two days. The city of Waukesha, where I live, has serious flooding. I was shocked to see the damage as I drove home last night.
Let's hope all of you are safe!

I hope you are high and dry and don't have any damage , I also hope no one on this forum is not having any water damage and are safe. BEN
Rene,
As I have friends whom I talk to daily in Milwaukee, and I monitor two local tv stations, I have been saddened by the destruction and havoc that has happened in your area. In fact many parts of the mid-west have taken a pounding.
Over here our Government is realizing that widespread flooding, due to exceptional rainfall, is something rhat has to be got to grips with. You may recall widespread flooding in many parts of England during last year.
On a brighter note it seems that those in China working to release the water,behind the dam caused by the catastrophic earthquke, has now been released.
