Oh...My...God... O_O
There is a huge thunderstorm all over West Tennessee. In one hour we got NINE inches of rain. We had flash-flooded streets, overturned and submersed cars and firetrucks, tornadoes, and even a closed police station. But nothing could've prepared us for the worst... A sewage processing plant lost power and was putting out RAW sewage into the already flooded streets. I saw pictures of cars litteraly engulfed in... Uh... You get the point. Btw this happened in Memphis, where I live, but the plant was nowhere near us >:D

Nine inches in one hour? That is huge! Where's my kayak? Actually, that's not a good idea...flood waters are often quite dangerous, what with all the debris and garbage.
