Will do my best here, and keeping the rest of you in my prayers for a safe week, it's not gonna end tomorrow.

You're right about Trenton, Yardley last year Stephanie...I remember route 29 was flooded out and when I finally got to route 1 they just waved us thru without having to pay the toll, and the river was RAGING! I couldn't even get on state road to get home, that was completely covered! If that's covered tomorrow, it's not going to be pretty here.

I'll have to leave the weather channel on overnight, I do have to get some sleep or I'd be here all nite :D

I was down at the Delaware River near Burlington New Jersey, near high tide it was pushing the banks, it was about 2-3 feet above normal.

Made it in, but the Delaware is still cresting, from what I heard the Schuylkill is receding, but we just had a t-storm at 4am and we are expecting more t-storms this PM

I think that the Delaware is still on it's way to "cresting" at Yardley, Trenton and points south through this afternoon. Today will be the worst day. The other rivers have already crested and are now lowering.

We had that thunderstorm this morning about the same time and I wonder what the evening will bring. It's beautiful down here at the NJ shore but it still was pretty soupy up by where I live.

Good Luck angelwing!

This was bad enough for us, but the people in New England dealt with this for a whole month. :eek:

Jersey Shore, sigh, you're making me jealous :D

Beautiful up here in Wrightstown, the hubby told me he saw some black clouds in Philly though, but nothing else and it's humid at home.

Thank you for the luck, I'm not going home thru Trenton, I'll bum some cash and take the turnpikes.
