How did things turn out with the canal? Please check in when you get a chance.
The canal rose to within 15 inches of the wall at 5:00 am this morning. The marina manager said he was in contact with the canal authorities all night, and they assured him it would not go over the banks. The rain yesterday was steady all day but not intense, and there were only a couple of minor gusts of wind.
However, the trees and debris that floated past us did jam the canal a couple of miles down, and the water diverted to the Mohawk. It will be a few days before that is all cleared out.
We are still here for another day or so, as the New York State Thruway is closed in a couple of places between us and Massachusetts.
