The weather is warm during the day and cool at night. The snow is very slowly melting. The river has gone over its banks below us. We already have water behind the greenhouse a few yard away. In the 10 years we have lived here - this is the first time the water has been there before the snow is even melted. Dave figures the water will be in the greenhouse by tonight.  The greenhouse is the lowest point on our property. Our house is one of the highest points - it hasn’t flooded at the house since 1972. 

From the back window of the house, near the doggie door.

From the back fence. The river is already quite high.

The farmer’s fields across the river from us. The huge lake is on top of the melting snow.

The new lake is getting bigger while there is lots of snow to melt.

Closer to home.

River is up since yesterday.

Close to the road.

Inches from the road now.

Still lots of snow!

Water behind the greenhouse - a good sized pond already!

With all the snow still to melt - it is inevitable that we will have more flooding then normal. How much more is yet to come. Will keep you posted.
