Last Tuesday brought heavy rains and sudden unexpected flooding in Pullman and Moscow, including a flash flood river rushing down one of the main streets of Pullman. I picked up Gunnar and Ransom from lacrosse practice at Logos, and it took us about a half hour to get back across town. Within a couple of hours of my taking the 4th pic by the ball fields, the usually empty overfill channel by Mountain View seen in the picture rose to cover Joseph St.
The boys thought the drive home through water was quite exciting. They enjoyed watching silly college boys "swim" shirtless in a neighborhood park, and I kept my eye on a log floating towards us as we sat in a channel with water halfway up the Tahoe's wheels.
The high water mark passed the record set in the 1996 floods here.
