So here in Hampton, VA, were starting to see the effects from hurricane sandy. I was wondering what you guys thought about driving through high water.
We live on an island on the lower east side of Hampton, and when it floods, the island is cut off. I just went out in my truck and took some pics, and got through just fine, but tonight at the next high tide, I don't think I will be so lucky. The water came up to the top of the step rails.
Here's a link to some pics I took and also the tide chart for right now. I plan to go out and get everything I need for the next day or so but My sister will have to come in tonight around 8 in a ford explorer and I'm worried. Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.
