The Great Flood of 2006

A few days after chief started working at 915, there was a string of thunderstorms that caused some flooding downtown. In particular was the day of the Great Flood; the first flood of downtown Madison.

I made this mspaint picture to chronicle the adventure of a bucket that got sucked out to sea from behind Jimmy John's.

Then, the next day, there was the mysterious "tornado" that apparently only I saw. Also, not documented in a photo, was the time the telephone pole next to Gumby's got hit by lightning. I'm pretty convinced I saw it go through the precinct and I most definitely screamed.

I was pretty convinced that it was only a matter of time before we all died from flood or tornado or lightning, but alas, chief and I did not do it.
