I had to put sandbags against my back door and block the inside with towels. The water filled my backyard and came up to the door stoop but didn't go high enough to come inside. It stayed about 8 inches away. By the end of the night, when I got back from work, the water was way down though. The yard is still flooded but no more danger of it coming inside the house. I had to work at Seatac Airport all day and we sustained a LOT of damage there. Part of the roof collasped in the North Satellite and broke a water pipe. The stairs that go down into the operations hub was a waterfall. We had to sand bag the door to our breakroom and water came in and filled the room with about two inches of water before maintenance could clear the drains. No damage except for the smell that was still there this morning. The bagwell where we drop off the incoming bags ( under the carousel ) was flooded and had to be pumped out too. It was taking us over an hour to get the bags to the passengers. What a mess! Tonight the moon is out though and It is the most beautiful sight in the world! I'll have to tell the wiener dogs we don't have to build a really long Ark after all.
