God damn worst fucking storm I've ever been in
75 mph winds, rain hail funnel clouds
Stuck at track can't even see, roads are closed anyway
Worst is yet to come

Now I'm parked in fucking river, I'll bet we make national news with this bitch, roads out of here are flooded, might be a long night
Funny, I tossed a rain coat in ram before l left

Made it 3 miles, road is washed out
What fun

Still stuck in traffic because the road is washed out and my neighbors house was flooded sure wish I could get home

Holy fucking shit....Finally made it home at 1:30 am, Interstate was shut down due to power lines being down so we were diverted onto side streets, no traffic lights, nothing, a complete black out.
Roads were turned into lakes, cars stalled everywhere, we had to back track numerous times just to make it to Corrales where we were greeted with 5' tall mud slides blocking the road.
Once we made it to our road we had to clear debris out of the way to even make it through. Our house is ok, a little damage to our drive way but our plants and trees are like sticks from the hail which is piled up in one foot drifts.
Those whom live below us are fucked, their houses look like house boats. Tomorrow is going to be a real eye opener.
Most importantly...Our Beagles are ok.

FYI: 89 mph winds

Holy shit Dave - glad you AND the beagles are OK.
I hope nothing of yours got any hail damage as well.
I'm sorry that somehow my luck has rubbed off on you.

The only stop sign on the road to my house went for a swim.
We had very little damage to our property and none to our house. After we were flooded in 2006 I went to town with a Bobcat.

Damn, sorry your night turned to shit. At least you, your wife, and your dogs are safe and still have a dry house.
Drops panties faster than any R/T
My truck looks like shit from sitting in the sand storm, cab, motor...Everything is covered with dirt. Rear Lexan window is toast.
We were lucky, this is the next street over, and yes, it's paved.

My Dakota 4x4 was on the news...I was parked at the end of the road taking some of the pics I've posted.
Flame Red rules, I'm famous.

My house might be on the news tonight, reporters were doing a story on the flooding right next to me. I'll send a link if it is, Helicopters, news vans, INFO BABES are everywhere.

Yep, the house and Dakota 4x4 truck were on TV, if they have the clip on their web site I'll post a link.
I saw them setting up the camera, so I drove my 4x4 half way down the driveway and parked it.

Ran across this old thread looking for something else....
Man...Linda and I soooooooo needed a fucking safe space that night, we were so damn worried about our Beagles.
July 2017 coming up....It's always in July. Always.
