It rained yesterday. And rained. And rained. And then it rained really hard. Well this morning I took a drive a see. The worst was the Conodoguinet Creek in Hopewell and Upper Mifflin Townships. Some bridges were impassable, some closed with barricades and some the water was so high it was best that you couldn't see just how high the water was. I drove through some flooded roadways but the worst ones where barricaded and I knew best to turn around. Other streams that feed into the Conodoguinet were not nearly as bad. Some were barely bankfull. This area got between 3 and 5 inches of rain yesterday. Local weather shows the Conodoguinet about a half a foot above flood stage and reaching almost two feet over by this evening.
