Sorry to hear that Ken, a flooded basement is no fun. Had to clean one up at my mom's condo when she lost power and the sump pump wasn't running. Had to clean one up here when the pressure tank sprung a leak, we have well. In both cases the water was clean, no sewer backup but still a mess. Hope all is well now.

Still a lot of roads under water here, abandoned cars all over that place. Can't blame the owner's, can't go forward, can't back up, water rising. Leave it and save yourself.

On the news right now, they have divers looking for people trapped, no doubt dead, in their cars under water on the freeways.

Mine wasn't any sewer water comin in (thank God). I have deep window wells in the back yard and one of them has a sump pump in it that stopped working, so the water seeped through..........guess I gotta get out the UGL Waterproofer Paint and give it another coat.

Been like that here too. Upper 40's to low 50's overnight, feels like September not August. I think we've only used the AC a couple times all summer.

They said the east side would have a cool summer and we would be hot. Looks like the weather person was right for once. We have been hot and dry now for over two months. My water bill has been higher then it has every been.

I am wondering what this fall is going to bring with the cool summer we have had. Usually August is in the high 80's and 90's. We have been in the 70's and low 80's. I just am hoping that what Mother Nature does this winter is nothing like last winter.

From what I have read it might be another cold winter on the east coast to midwest. Most likely not the record snow fall you had last year.

It has been pretty humid around here lately. The temps have been in the high 70's and low 80's. Today should be in the low 80's again with lots of humidity. Usually August in Michigan is in the 80's-90's. We should hit the 90's for a day or two this week and then back to the low 70's.

I don't know if everyone else is having some really strange weather also.
