Thankfully I'm not close to the coast. Unfortunately, we are expecting possible record rainfall. I live on a hill in a shallow valley, more like a deep wide ditch. We don't normally see flooding, except down below us about 300 yards. There is a creek that rarely floods, but it has twice in my life. I'm 41. The first time was hurricane Hugo in the late 80's and a freak weather pattern a few years back. Now, there are several new housing developments that send their runoff into the creek. I guess it may be possible for us to see water up onto our block now. The water would have to come up about fifty feet to reach the foundation of my home, maybe a little higher. I'm not sure it could come up that far. There's to many other areas close by for the water to spread out and disipate.
