That area on route 67 has a small brook, maybe about 15 feet wide. I believe that was mainly "just" runoff from the surrounding hills.
-
These are all the same areas that got destroyed in 1955. Army Corp of Engineers then designed and built several dams around here to deal with something similar. But a lot of those feeder rivers today were just roaring like nothing seen before. I can't imagine how the Housatonic is handling this. The other thing to consider is all the sewage plants along the Naugatuck river that were flooded; the untreated effluent was just washed into the river.

Another 2-3 inches right on the bullseye.
-
Bunch of drunks in an Oxford bar flooded with water, filming houses and playgrounds floating by. Pretty funny.
-
Good Lord, that is awful. The stories of destruction just keep on coming.
-
Who the hell makes the decision to drive through that? It's not like it comes within 10 seconds.
-
And a lot of lightning in that.
-
There are already places over that.
-
Sometimes you SHOULDN'T pay attention to those road signs.
-
Helicopters to rescue dozens of people stuck on a shallow island in the Housatonic/Lake Zoar.
-
From Panera's in Southbury looking NNW.
-
Yup. Probably wouldn't get this much water with Ernie anyway. Our cars and chicken coops may have washed away, but we still have our homes.
-
Yeah, and then that line of storms advancing from the west.
-
Just dropped my mom off back home and I saw a chicken coop floating down the Nonnewaug.
-
Once in 1000 year event.
-
There should be a CNN crew or Cantore showing up...Round two backbuilding at this moment.
-
That is unbelievable. Never saw anything like that there in 40 years. The Pomperaug river must have burst its banks.
-
Yup. Only hope is the backbuilding down north of Greenwich. Trying to top 6 here. 5.19.
-
Yeah, even worse to the west. They're pulling 3.5"/hour stuff. I just hit 1.4. No end in sight.
-
Just coming into Litchfield County. Rare to see rain this heavy. Literally watching the digital gauge go up a hundreth of an inch every 10 seconds.
-
Just hit 1" since 4am. Torrential wall of rain just to my south moving in. 65/65
-
.69 since 4am. Continues to backfill.
-
63/63. steady moderate rain .29

Lucky you. Crappy here all day. Clouds, toxic Canadian fumes, cool. So I stayed in and listened to Lex Fridman interview Frank Wilczek et al, and watched planes take off from JFK on flightradar24.

I was walking through the Colosseum at Rome several weeks ago. It was not uncommon for ferocious tigers and wolves to battle it out...to the end.
