Record flooding took place from North Carolina up through New England from Tropical Storm Lee moving through the area.
Many of our friends were evacuated and had major water damage to their homes. It brought back memories of Hurricane Agnes in 1972. The photo above is of the Giant Center in Hershey where they were getting ready for the RV Show. It is one of the largest shows in the country. You can see the RVs parked in the parking lot. The Swatara Creek normally runs along the the tree line that you see at the bottom of the photo but due to 13" of rain, the creek was flooding. It set records for the highest flood waters ever recorded. The road that disappears into the water is Rte. 39.
Above is a photo of the Pizza Hut and Wendy's Restaurants on Hershey Park Drive. They had been under water halfway up their windows. This photo shows all the mud once the flood waters receded. A major clean-up is underway.
