wxeyeNH Posted September 14, 2011 Share Posted September 14, 2011 Incredible video of flash flooding taking out a road. Once the water finds its way around the galvanized pipe under the road its all downhill from there! Starts slow but gets better. http://www.facebook....v=1179845794750 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baroclinic Zone Posted September 14, 2011 Share Posted September 14, 2011 Crazy $hit! See no other vehicles makes me wonder if the road was closed already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wxeyeNH Posted September 14, 2011 Author Share Posted September 14, 2011 Crazy $hit! See no other vehicles makes me wonder if the road was closed already. A friend of mine had posted this on her facebook page. It said that it was taken by a police officer. So my guess is that the police were also somewhere on the otherside stopping traffic. If I had come to that road I would have been stupid enough to try to cross at least at the start of the video, didn't look very bad at first.

Brewbeer Posted September 15, 2011 Share Posted September 15, 2011 Is there a link to this video for those of us not on Facebook? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tamarack Posted September 15, 2011 Share Posted September 15, 2011 That comes from 2-3 years ago, not sure from where - someplace in southern Maine? I'd only seen the 10-15 second clip (run often on the news) where the current lifts the culvert, making it look like one of Dune's sandworms rising out of the desert. The full video upthread shows the whole collapse process - much better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allenson Posted September 16, 2011 Share Posted September 16, 2011 Wow. Kind of like fast-forward geology, right there. Very cool, thanks for posting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damage In Tolland Posted September 16, 2011 Share Posted September 16, 2011 Is there a link to this video for those of us not on Facebook? Why would anyone in this day and age not be on Facebook and Twitter? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian5671 Posted September 16, 2011 Share Posted September 16, 2011 Why would anyone in this day and age not be on Facebook and Twitter? Some people choose not to. I'm on Facebook, but not twitter. There are still a few holdouts in my social/family circle not on either....too bad for them, but that's their choice. My in laws think they are too old for facebook and that's the sole reason why they are not on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brewbeer Posted September 16, 2011 Share Posted September 16, 2011 Once you post something to Facebook, they own it. There is no way to delete it or get it back. Oh, you might be able to "hide" it from some, but you can never "delete" it. If Facebook is willing to change their policy regarding ownership of information posted, I'll re-activate my account. But not until that happens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Professional Lurker Posted September 16, 2011 Share Posted September 16, 2011 That's a crazy video, showing how quick and dangerous flash floods can be. ...There's tons of photos and video out there from the VT flooding, but not that much on the Deerfield River. I've seen the "angry Deerfield" photos from Shelburne, but are there any photos or video at all from up in Savoy? Route 2 is closed indefinitely in Savoy, and I'd like to see pics!

wxeyeNH Posted September 17, 2011 Author Share Posted September 17, 2011 I saw this on a friends facebook page, so I think you need FB to view it. Sorry! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
