  • This is video after the 200mm of rain over the course of 48 hours - Rain Storm Abbotsford/Sumas Flats. “Whatcom” Road is the spelling. Usually there is no water in these areas. Farms, houses and roads. 100 years ago the area was a lake. At 4:40, the group in the boat were singing Giligan's Island theme song - take note of the guy with the captains hat. :)

    It's so sad to see the devastation and destruction caused by floods. I live in Louisiana where we've experienced several major floods with people having to be rescued from the roofs of their homes or cars. One thing I've learned is that property and homes can be replaced but lives can't! 🙏🙏🙏

    One thing is for sure, I'm really not surprised at all by how many boats I've been seeing in the footage I've seen. I mean we're known as "The City In The Country" for a reason, lots of country people out here and country people tend to own boats of all shapes and sizes. Just within my extended family we own 3 of the little aluminum fishing boats. Also people out here (at least that I know of) lots of them do river fishing, which can be more on the shallow side, so they're used to looking out for obstacles underwater.
