I took one photo saturday night when the rain and wind started to get
bad.I was only going as far as my porch during the storm so it's a view
of my street in west Philly.

Today, I walked into center city and saw that the Schuylkill river was
15 feet above normal because of runoff and the tide. While I was
shooting, mostly the river, the water level dropped by about a foot. By
the time I walked home, the river had receded maybe 3 feet and law
enforcement were allowing people down to the Schuylkill bank park.

here's the album url:

Tomorrow is the first day of my final semester at Temple University as
an undergrad and I'm going to walk to school with the camera and see if
there are any storm effects on the way. Not much of the city proper was
flooded but there are downed trees and power lines here and there. 

Your comments are always appreciated.

Thanks all,
Phil Forrest
