Hurricane Frances was not as strong as expected, and not as bad as
what Ivan (the terrible?) may be, so far a category 5, it should be here around thursday.
Frances still generated a lot of rain in the area, with floods in various places. Three days almost with uninterrupted rain, heavy at times...
There are pictures of the Big Creek in Alpharetta. The small river suddenly turned itself into a muddy brown torrent, flooding the bike trail (big creek greenway) on its side. It does not take much to make the Big Creek flood anyways, just a big storm in summer, and there is an area around the Big Creek that is frequently flooded and kind of swampy, like on the picture below (pretty nice one, I know :-] ). Click on the pictures to enlarge them, click here: www.windal.net/gallery/BigCreekGW to see them all.
