Seattle woman dies after being trapped in flooded basementA Seattle woman died after spending eight minutes in rising water after she became trapped in her basement while the room flooded, according the Seattle Fire Department.
The woman was stuck in the windowless utility room of her home in the 500 block of 30th Avenue East after floodwaters blocked the only door out and the water inched toward the ceiling, spokeswoman Helen Fitzpatrick said.
Firefighters pulled the woman out at about 5:30 p.m. by cutting a hole in the floor of the room above and pulling her through the ceiling of the basement.
Medics began CPR after the woman was rescued. She was transported to Harborview Medical Center, Fitzpatrick said. She died later Thursday evening.
I work for a company that monitors commercial buildings for fire and emergency services. I am exhausted. Constant flood alarms going off in basements of highrises, skylights flying off of roofs, people trapped in elevators. I am not in your city but my heart goes out to you all as you extricate yourselves from this mess. However, to the woman who kept calling because we couldn't send someone right away to clean up the bottle of merlot she spilled on her carpet in her new condo: please do not breed.
I live in the 200 block of 30th east. At least a dozen other houses in the valley have been flooded by the rainstorm which occured at 4:30 thursday afternoon. There has been a huge city construction project underway in our neighborhood to build a stormwater detention facility. Apparently this was not enough.
this made me very sad.
i need some good news. preferrably snark-free good news.
