Nathan,
If I can I will. I'm located in the center of it (11 inches of rain fell). I'm on high ground, so at my location it's a prefect day. However, I would be hard pressed to go more than a mile before encountering high water.
Regards,
Art S.
Art,
Is there flooding where you are located? If you learn of more flooding damage to bridges please post on here, I am concerned given this storm hit one of the top historic bridge regions in the country.
Videos of a tornado passing by this bridge:

The Burlington-Bristol Bridge underwent a complete re-painting in the fall of 2016, winter of '16 & '17
has anybody heard anything further on why the container ship ran aground on the Delaware?i'm surprised nobody put any jokes on the site about this incident.a good one would have been like a picture of a fisherman next to the ship saying"mom,look what I caught!"a little humor never hurt.
Bulk carrier lost power and ran aground next to the bridge. Probably to avoid hitting it (my opinion). Cool videos:

There are two Burlington-Bristol Bridge entries, slightly different, but they should be researched and combined.
This bridge is also known at the Burlington-Bristol Bridge, seeing as it crosses between Bristol Township PA and Burlington NJ.
The first picture is the PA approach of the bridge, headed into NJ, showing one of the concrete counterweights and its towner.
The second picture is the western portal, with the signals to stop if the bridge is open.
The third picture is crossing the bridge.
The fourth picture is one of the bridge houses.
The fifth picture is the eastern portal, ascending down the deck truss approach to the toll booth, which collects going west only.
Webmaster's note: The photos that were here have been incorporated into the main site.
The bridge is actually called the Burlington-Bristol Bridge
Another view of the tornado; the bridge may be fracture critical but it seems to be tornado resistant: https://twitter.com/i/status/1433246539183443970
