Last week we were hit by a few powerful rain storms, which also had the effect of melting most of the remaining snow. There has been a fair amount of
flooding in the region as a result of these recent rain events and warm weather.
After work, Friday I made sure to take advantage of the warm weather and went for a walk with my camera to check out the flooding in part the 'lowlands' of the Cary Institute, the area west of Fowler Road, which Wappinger Creek flows through.

The lowlands as seen from Fowler Rd, flooded. It looks like a small lake or reservoir. |
