Storm damage yesterday?

Lexington, VA(Zone 6a)

Wondering if anyone else had problems with all the rains, flooding, etc. Reports are we had 4.39 inches of rain in less than 12 hrs!! We didn't think much of it until we headed to the nursery and realized that the creek had flooded, worst I've seen in 6 years. What a mess! The creek was so high that the water was coming up OVER the guard rail and was so powerful it bent the rail!!! We had about 10 bales of soil and a ton of gallon pots that were washed away - not too much damage otherwise, but sure hurts the 'pocketbook' :((

I'm heading back down to the nursery and plan to take a few pictures and will share them later.

Lots and lots of rain here but not a lot of wind and no real damage. I'm sure the creek was high just because of the amount of rain we've had the last week or so but it's not close enough to us to really flood much. There was water running down the driveway yesterday long after the rain stopped but that's about it.
