Floods and destruction!

This footage was shot during the same storm as the whirlpool clip. The backing up storm drain about to blow its top shows just how much water we are forcing down our storm drain, into creeks, and ultimately into our great lake.

Note the color of the water and the apparent high amount of sediment loading from the areas around construction projects in the area. Appropriate erosion control measures, inlet protection, etc did not seem to be in place. Officials in charge of enforcement of related environmental laws could not be reached for comment.
