Floods locally

Full 10 hours today. Had my son and wife, one good friend, and four volunteers. The basement is empty and free of "river mud". Now to mop and bleach. I think the furnace will survive. Pulled out the squirrel cage and cleaned it all real good. Letting it dry and lube tomorrow. It's OG 1979 to the house, I'm confident. Back when they built ****. Fingers crossed on the water heater. We shall see.
I agree with Big Dad. Anyone possibly in the way of these floods, don't take anyone's ******* word on how good or bad it's going to be. PREPARE!!!!
