Flooding: Irene vs. Sandy

Macungie Road is a great illustration of how much rain we received during Hurricanes Irene vs. Hurricane Sandy. Clearly the wind was our worst enemy this time.

The wind was certainly the villian of Hurricane Sandy, since the rains involved certainly did not amount what we received a year ago during Hurricane Irene.

Take a look at all three photos to see Macungie Road dry, then what it looked like after Hurricane Sandy last week and a year ago August after Hurricane Irene clobbered the area.
