EDIT: go here: http://www.shroomery.org/forums/showflat.php/Number/14422232#14422232
my whole town is going to be underwater. It's a mandatory evacuation. Something about opening the flood spill gates or something I really don't know the details
i try to be a take it as it comes kinda guy, so i'm not too about it
but this means that my job is going to be shut down, maybe for several months : deytukurjubs:
and I need to find homes for the outside animals. At first I was just worried about the gators coming up into the yard but now from what it seems there's not going to be a yard. They're telling us to put all important paperwork n stuff as high up as possible because our homes will probably be flooded
I'm trying to blow it all off as much as possible, but recent developments make it seem pretty

I don't think they can legally force you from your home. I heard about this on NPR and some official was saying something about its not a law that people need to evacuate, but they're strongly suggesting it. they're probably calling it mandatory to people know how serious the flooding will be. i could be wrong, but you could stay home and hang out underwater for a while if you really wanted to exercise your rights

but all kidding aside, that fucking sucks. i can't imagine how shitty it must be to have to pack up as many valuables and essentials as you can and wait for your home and your possessions to be destroyed by a flood. i feel for ya man.. sorry. nature is a bitch.

Dude that sucks. Living in a flood plane you have to expect this sort of thing to happen every now and again. Good luck man.

well a few days ago it was "voluntary evacuation", and we had 2-3 weeks (from now) to be prepared
now word of mouth is "mandatory evacuation" in just about 1 week, supposedly with the national guard here n thangs
but I'll know much more at the town meeting in a few days

mostly i was just bored and often have trouble relating to the pub so I figured id mention this
what's interesting is that we all expected the water to get really high, with all the snow that happened this year, but no idea it would be like this

i'm starting to think this is being just a little overblown
I just went outside, looks like the water would have to come up about 15 feet to reach my floor. and I think my house is higher up than a lot of em around here
"they say" that if your house flooded in the flood of 78 or some shit, it will again plus some
the roads will definitely be underwater (extremely dangerous around here) i'll definitely be out of work for an undetermined period of time (the biggest thing that sucks about this because I'm broke lol) and I definitely have to relocate several animals so that they don't become gator bait
but hey, at least it's not a cat. 5 hurricane

swamp = flood plain that never dries out right? Still sucks though.

Well depending on the situation, the powers that be may be intentionally flooding your area to save another.
