The rain has stopped then we got about 6 inches of snow over night. The water is still rising, most of St George is closed because of flooding. The worst anyone has every seen around here. I haven't been able to get out since yesterday and doesn't look like I will get out anytime soon. Thankful though that I am at home, still have power, lots of food to eat, and my house is high and dry. Lots of people have 3 - 4 feet of water in their house. All sorts of emergency centres set up. Supposed to be -11 tonight, don't know what we will do if this freezes before it runs off. They are expecting the river to peak tonight sometime then the water will start to recede. BTW I am about 2 miles from the river. I am on a little bit of an incline so the water is not affecting me too much yet except for being stranded.
