flood storm pittsburgh aug 19th 2011

Driving back to oakmont from Duquesne Univ took 2 hrs, didnt realize the city was flooded.  Forbes ave was closed, i couldn't get out of downtown, finally ended up in Bloomsfield, got caught with 40th st bridge traffic, drove BACK into city to get on Butler and ended up stuck at Route 8 by the Zoo - turns out, a flood there KILLED three people.  didnt realize this until i got home.  I was listening to internet radio, and forgot my phone.  I still cant believe that pittsburgh would flood so bad, or get hit so hard by a T storm.  god bless us all. very very tragic.  made me very humble and thankful i got home late but safe.
