Just down the street from my house:
They are lower than the other houses so we were protected from the floods, but I feel sorry for these people. Every time there is a lot of rain, their house and yard gets completely flooded. This is the first time I've ever had to see them block off the street and be moved out of their house, though.

More like scratch maker.Park the car outside. Rain + wind = free pressure washer.
We had a storm last night with an 82mph wind gust at about 11:00 PM. I thought it would get all the salt off my car. Apparently, the tiny debris also put scratches all over the passenger side.
During the storm a transformer near our house blew, making a nice light and noise show, and our neighbor had a massive, nearly three-foot thick tree fall in their driveway. Aside from the scratches on my car, we were unscathed.
When the wind gust came up I thought it was a tornado from the sound, but could see it didn't look like one.
I can now say I survived hurricane-force winds in Kentucky.

It's ice... It's snow... It's trees. What will the sky drop on us next?
Edit: I'm guessing - just guessing - SlipZ is probably stuck without power, actually.

Been quite a storm here all morning/afternoon. The wind has finally settled down a bit, though it hasn't stopped raining. It's around 11ºC at the moment.

I hate you. I hate you both.I feel your pain, because I'm going through the same HELL!
It was 70° yesterday, will be 76° today and 80° on Christmas Eve. The horror!
In all fairness, we don't have all that much snow, either, but that's because it just too damn cold.

People amaze me. The truck can kind of get away with it since it's heavier and has slightly less of a chance of getting stuck (people do this offroad all the time) but the Monte Carlo is just dumb.
Personally, if I see a washed out road that is more than maybe a few inches deep, I won't even go near it. Not worth the risk.

@Slashfan, Did you take all the photos that you posted? If so, some of those are pretty good.

Though I will empathize that I too would feel really weird for a summery Christmas.

No I actually didn't. I pulled them from a local new website that deals strictly with my hometown. The photos were taken by random people in the town or some of the guys that run the page. They usually have some nice photos.
That's not even the worst of it. It's expected to crest sometime tonight.
