The Delaware River is the closest major river to me (about 10 miles away) is predicted to crest tomorrow around 2PM at 3ft above flood stage which is 20 or 22'.

I hear that, glad they don't have do deal with that anymore! Well, I'm going to put my toys away, and get out of here. You guys have a good weekend, I'll catch you all later.
Stay dry Chris!
