Georgia is experiencing flash floods due to heavy overnight rains. Great portions of the city of Atlanta and it’s surrounding areas are being crippled by the backup.

This is a shot I took this morning of Peachtree Creek, a block from my house on Defoors Ferry Rd, in Buckhead. The creek is usually about fifteen to twenty feet shallower than what you can see here. Luckily there is a USGS monitor positioned there!

Feel free to email tessa at driveafastercar.com with your photos or videos of flooding in your area and I’m happy to post them.
