      <![CDATA[Elaborating on @12 and what Cliff Mass said yesterday, a "100-year flood" is for a specific river or location. If you add up the number of potential locales then you should expect to have a "100-year flood" every 4.5 years or so. Which is pretty much exactly what we have. If global warming is having an effect yet (and it will eventually), it's not showing up in the numbers yet.

      <![CDATA[From the Seattle Public Utilities website:<br />
<br />
Storm season is underway and Seattle Public Utilities (SPU) is offering a limited number of free, filled sandbags to households or business owners in flood-prone areas. If you’ve experienced, or come close to, flooding, you may consider using sandbags.<br />
<br />
Sandbags don’t seal out water, but can help redirect the flow of water and protect property from debris. Sandbags must be used with caution because it is illegal to divert water to your neighboring properties.<br />
<br />
SPU is making up to 25 sandbags available to households or businesses at four locations listed below starting Saturday, October 15, 2011. Sandbags are heavy (they weigh about 40 pounds each), so be sure either you, or someone you bring with you, can lift, carry and load the sandbags into your vehicle.<br />
<br />
Sandbag Pick-Up Locations:<br />
<br />
Delridge Community Center<br />
4501 Delridge Way SW Seattle, WA 98106<br />
<br />
Helene Madison Pool<br />
13401 Meridian N Seattle, WA 98133<br />
<br />
South Park Neighborhood<br />
731 S. Sullivan Seattle, WA 98108<br />
<br />
Meadowbrook Community Center<br />
10517 35th Ave. NE Seattle, WA 98125<br />
<br />
You can pick up your sandbags at any of these locations, any time of day, while supplies last. Sandbags will be left outside for public pick-up. To make sure there are enough sandbags available for all those in need, please limit your supply to 25 sandbags per address.
