11/7/2007 5:43:33 PM

Yeah, they said a water main broke. It was nasty when I drove through there a few minutes ago, flooded past the Food Lion entrance.

11/7/2007 5:43:51 PM

11/7/2007 5:44:23 PM

wtf...so if i walk out there i can see something?

11/7/2007 5:45:53 PM

ohhhhhhhhh, so thats why avent ferry was backed up to varsity. Is it actually under the street or what?

11/7/2007 5:45:56 PM

I rode from Thistledown to avent but I crossed through Dominion ... I usually dont do that but I guess an angel told me to

Yeah there is a ton of water running from somewhere on the hill before the Kangaroo... I was too busy jammin to really care

The water is coming out of all the sewers and stuff all over both of the streets.

11/7/2007 5:47:52 PM

my toilet barely swallowed it

11/7/2007 5:47:55 PM

11/7/2007 5:48:23 PM

he can take a right onto avent ferry and turn in at food lion

11/7/2007 5:52:49 PM

Gorman was pretty backed up (between Avent Ferry and Western) when I went through, but clear on the other side of the intersection. Just after the intersection, the whole right lane of Gorman is under water, but after that, it clears up.

11/7/2007 5:53:38 PM

They are redirecting all the traffic through the Avent Ferry Shopping Complex...I'm washing dishes now and I took a shower...my water pressure felt fine at Gorman Crossings.

11/7/2007 5:55:49 PM

OMG THE DROUGHT IS EVEN WORSE NOW

11/7/2007 5:56:15 PM

heh, you might wanna go to the place in mission valley

11/7/2007 5:56:38 PM

I wouldn't advice driving through it...when I was waiting to turn left on Avent Ferry to go home...people turning into the parking lot were splashing water up to my window...

It's definitely a huge amount of water being wasted...

11/7/2007 5:57:21 PM

I NEEDZ MAH PEARL

11/7/2007 5:57:34 PM

i like like 100 ft. from there....and yet i found out about it on TWW.

11/7/2007 5:57:45 PM

^

i need a camera....i'm going to go look

11/7/2007 5:58:19 PM

All I have is my phone camera...it wouldn't really help!

11/7/2007 5:58:48 PM

Whoever lives in the area, prepare for an outage...

Depending on what happened, it could take a while to get it fixed, a couple of hours anyway.

Are you sure it isn't the massive turd you took this morning.

11/7/2007 6:04:43 PM

^^^Your water is brown...I hope my dishes are getting washed with clear water...this could be bad...

11/7/2007 6:05:16 PM

my toilet just started going nuts

11/7/2007 6:09:45 PM

looked pretty cool

water is coming down avent ferry going toward campus and pooling at the corner of gorman/avent ferry

11/7/2007 6:13:47 PM

it happened way before 530 -- or at least something did -- because i drove from campus to lake johnson about 445 and there was a river coming down gorman through the intersection
