SIGNIFICANTLY GONE DOWN AS THE
WINDS HAVE PICKED UP.
TWO MAJOR CONCERNS HERE TONIGHT
OBVIOUSLY ARE GOING TO BE THIS
STORM MANY WATER COLLECTING IN
THE STREETS HERE BECAUSE
FLOODING IS OBVIOUSLY A HUGE
ESPECIALLY IN THE DOWNTOWN AREA
AND THEN CONTRIBUTING FACTOR TO
IT'S SUPPOSED TO BE COMING IN

AT LEAST AT THE HIGHEST POINT
WHICH COULD AFFECT THIS AREA
RIGHT HERE AND IN PARTICULAR
BUT OFTENTIMES A LOT OF AREAS
IN THE DOWNTOWN AREA.
I WANT TO SHOW YOU JOYED FROM

REALLY WASN'T THAT BAD ABOUT AN
HOUR AGO.

BAD OUT HERE.
