Sunday night I went out into my back yard on Main Street and found the entire river flowing across the rear portion of my property. This is the third time this has happened in the 14 years that I&#8217;ve lived here, once during Hurricane Irene, and another spring flood, but never in winter.<\/p>\n<p>In the morning I walked up to the bridge to find a huge conglomerate of ice stuck on the Western bank around the Hotel Bridge, and a living room sized ice berg in the middle of the channel effectively directing the majority of flow under the main street bridge causing the flooding, the entire channel extending around the three parcels is completely blocked with ice. Again in my time here this is a first. We are hoping for a gentle warming and spring breakup, with no large rain events, otherwise we may be in trouble.<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; \u00a0Jason Johnson<\/p>\n<p>Pictures showing the arctic landscape and volume of ice, (pretty) and pretty cool, take a look&#8230;<\/p>\n\n\t\t<style>\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 {\n\t\t\t\tmargin: auto;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 .gallery-item {\n\t\t\t\tfloat: left;\n\t\t\t\tmargin-top: 10px;\n\t\t\t\ttext-align: center;\n\t\t\t\twidth: 33%;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 img {\n\t\t\t\tborder: 2px solid #cfcfcf;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 .gallery-caption {\n\t\t\t\tmargin-left: 0;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t\/* see gallery_shortcode() in wp-includes\/media.php *\/\n\t\t<\/style>\n\t\t<div id='gallery-1' class='gallery galleryid-2544 gallery-columns-3 gallery-size-thumbnail'><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/leedscivic.org\/leeds2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/04\/teccalogo347.png'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"80\" height=\"80\" src=\"https:\/\/leedscivic.org\/leeds2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/04\/teccalogo347-80x80.png\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/leedscivic.org\/leeds2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/04\/teccalogo347-80x80.png 80w, https:\/\/leedscivic.org\/leeds2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/04\/teccalogo347-36x36.png 36w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 80px) 100vw, 80px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt><\/dl>\n\t\t\t<br style='clear: both' \/>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[JAN 20, 2015] I don&#8217;t know if anyone has been walking around the river, with the conditions so treacherous over the last two days.
