HWY 249 Landslide

Highway 249 (just north of Pegram City limits)

This section of Highway 249 (Sam's Creek Road) is just
outside the Pegram City limits to the north. They began
filling this back in Tuesday (5/4) last week. The road was
never closed throughout the process. When you get 14-16"
of rain in 32 hours, all kinds of weaknesses are exposed.

Heading to the dedicated gallery to the flood aftermath...

Scary stuff - it's five years this month since we had our roof wrecked by hail stones. Hope you are in for a spell of calmer weather.

LOL @ Phil. That looks dangerous alright.

It just makes you realise how vunerable we are.
