The statement above is no joke, we got the worst flooding we have ever experienced here in Palm Coast. We normally don't flood, FPC Highschool has also flooded in some areas, which I believe school is closed for tommorrow. I went to investigate the floods, drove to the worst area and found water as high as 4 feet in some areas. In fact, I lost control of the car and the flood steered it for a while, I was able to get out of that situation thank God. It was deffinatly a horrific night, tried to get good pictures, but it was too dark.

We did get some pretty good rainfall during last evening. We got much more overnight. Several tropical downpours. Not sure but we probably got 3+ inches.

And as I write this....we are getting ANOTHER tropical downpour. It will be nice to be out of the circulation pattern of TD10
