The National Weather Service warned of flash flooding.
They were right.
This was the scene moments ago at the Westport railroad station, opposite the former Mystic Market:
It’s a good thing very few folks park at the station these days.
And here was the scene not far away, at Sylvan Road South near Gilbertie’s:

The flood warning has been extended until 6 p.m.

Sylvan Road is well named.
Last week’s Photo Challenge — courtesy of Tom Lowrie — showed a pastoral scene. The flowers, bushes and rock gardens are on a main road. But where?
They’re on Sylvan Road South, near Gilbertie’s Herb Gardens. Marion Kelly, Amy Schneider and Darcy Sledge were quick with the answer. Though I gotta say, last Sunday was gorgeous. They shoulda been outside gardening. (Click here for the photo.)
This week’s Photo Challenge also has a nature’s feel to it. Kinda, anyway.
