It's going on our fourth day of "Flood Watch" and our second day off work. They're still keeping everyone updated on water levels, ice blocks, and have a live video feed coming from a circling helicopter. I'm not sure why, but they've made it available on the school web page instead of the facebook page.
We had a couple decently cold days, keeping everything pretty much blocked up, but now that it's warming up people are actually starting to talk about flooding.
Only a few people from the hospital have been taken out early, but the actual evacuation plan is on hold for now.
That's the flooded causeway behind me - we're actually isolated now since the airport, hospital, and Northern Store are on the 'mainland'. You can get across by helicopter if you need groceries or anything, but apparently it's around $40/person.
The dogs have provided no end for entertainment needs, but even so it's really very quiet around here. Someone's having a potluck at their place tonight so now the biggest dilema in my life is whether to make meat balls or cinnamon buns...
