We live at the top of a hill in West Des Moines. We woke up Sunday morning to water nearly ankle deep in some parts of the basement. In one of the finished areas of the basement, the water was deep enough to sit above the lovely 70's shag carpet. My computer room is also in the basement. Luckily, it was far enough away from the problem area that nothing was damaged. At first I thought the water in our basement was due to a clogged gutter overflowing, but after seeing carpet out for trash pickup by surrounding houses, I'm beginning to think it was more than that. We just finished going through the rest of the boxes that got damaged. I guess the bright side is there's nothing left in the area that flooded, as long as it doesn't flood any worse than it did Sunday.<br>

My company is helping out in this regard as well.<br>

One of my (non-LUG) friends also has some spaces available for non-IT<br>
business recovery (tables, chairs... people stuff).<br>

Tomorrow is bound to be interesting.<br>
