So, the river broke violently this year and now the downtown area is flooded. All the low areas have been evacuated, and we officially have a second state of Local Emergency on top of the already-existing state of emergency.

My area is fine; I don't live in the affected part of the city. But a lot of people live in the affected areas. And there are a lot of businesses there as well. (Including my workplace. ...Well. Ex-workplace.)

The river flooding things out is a risk most years, though it isn't always this bad, so the city is pretty used to dealing with it. But we really don't need this kind of nonsense right now.

Way too much excitement for one weekend, I think.

(Fire, plague, now floods. What next? :V I don't think I want to know!)
