Does **** and other stuff come up from the sewers, when streets are
flooded? Is the pressure high enough in the sewers to push water up through the road drains openings and push off the drain cover? --- This email has been checked for viruses by Avast antivirus software. https://www.avast.com/antivirus |

Yes. And yes. If you took the trouble to read the newspaper reports or listen to the TV and radio bulletins, you would have known that. Why do you think flooded properties become uninhabitable for so long? And why do you think the whole area stinks like a sewage works when the water goes down? jim |

I've never been in a situation or been to a flooded area to know what it smells like. My TV, shows pictures and emits sound, but it doesn’t have any means of emitting smells for my olfactory senses to pick up. --- This email has been checked for viruses by Avast antivirus software. https://www.avast.com/antivirus |

Though of course, to be flooded by the canal I would need a flood on the scale of Noah. --- This email has been checked for viruses by Avast antivirus software. https://www.avast.com/antivirus |

Power stations must be switched off when the water reaches the skirting boards so the ability of local stations to pump sewage stops. Nobody in those houses can get anything but water and that looks like it is running through the cess although it should be shielded. So nor electric and for most no heating, also no blankets or clean clothes nor cleaning anywhere within a bus ride. The place smells estuarine once the water drains away which means that anything more capable than plastic, of decomposing, degenerates to a feverish, sodden ruin. Cars can not be dried out without complete overhaul and any animals abandoned will die. So there is going to be a serious smell for weeks.. All the houses will require hosing out before the insurance can be decided on and most people even some insurance offices will lose records. I don't know how modern records will fare in the computer age. They should be safe but when a company like TalkTalk can be wrecked by a 15 year old out for kicks... All wiring below floorboards will have to come out all floor boards made of chipboard will have to be removed unless it is the green one. All electrical devices on floors swill be ruined and all beds downstairs too. Nobody will be getting a bath or a cup of tea for a few days. And even the clothing upstairs will start suffering from mildew unless someone opens the doors and windows and switches on the heat.... ahhh... About three days after the mess clears/water goes down, the problem will be children playing and homeless people looking for anything. Thieves and junkies will be there already and so will cowboy repair men. If any foundations have moved the biggest criminals will be insurance reps. Be careful what you sign. Most roads will be OK especially as they won't be getting much use for a few weeks. But the emergency services will be occupied sorting out what infrastructure needs repairing first besides looking after displaced people. Now would be a good time to reflect on the pressure refugee centres are under all the time and just what it means for a man to take his wife and children and flee a political hell. No matter how wet your walls get; at the end of the spell you are still free and comparatively rich. |

Is the pressure high enough in the sewers to push water up through the road drains openings and push off the drain cover? It really depends on your level and the ability for the water to run to sea level Unless they are thrown far they will just drop back down. But a walking stick might be handy. I live on one of the highest parts of Wolverhampton at over 500ft, though there is a canal about 60 feet below my level. Though of course, to be flooded by the canal I would need a flood on the scale of Noah. And of course that can never happen, in fact scientists say.. That canal will be draining downhill if you look I am sure you will see that it was built to pour away from you. Have you noticed, offhand? God did say that it happened once although that one promised he'd only do it the once. However he also spoke about his version of Global warming on several occasions: Deuteronomy 23 And your sky over your heads will be bronze, and the earth under your feet iron; Merrly Christmas. Time for a rethink? See if you can see where the sludge drains out of Wolverhampton's canals. If it is full of iron.... To be honest I couldn't find the verse where he compares the sky to the present weather. I wonder how much latitude he allowed for different climates and different translations. But I am sure you can see that It doesn't take a flood that is off the scale to bring devastation. And if the skies are the colour they are because of impending volcanic eruptions (which I believe they are, despite the long wait) scientists saying things about sulphur particulate should be forced to shut up or (better) to lie down with the cow that started Glowballs. Fascinating though, isn't it? The bible is a very clever book. Give it a try sometime. You don't HAVE TO believe it. (Unless you do, of course.) |

However, don’t try to make a political message about nogs from less civilised part of the world invading Europe, when they can easily go to the country next door. --- This email has been checked for viruses by Avast antivirus software. https://www.avast.com/antivirus |

I would never use electric if my house was flooded, though I would use the gas to try and dry out the house, with the some windows open. I wouldn't trust the water if the local sewage works was flooded. --- This email has been checked for viruses by Avast antivirus software. https://www.avast.com/antivirus |
