Interesting sidenote

I didn't notice this at first, but upon reflection I saw the change. Note the difference between the pre-flood and post-flood pictures of the same section of the Monocacy.

This is what the river looked like on Monday, before the river hit flood peak.

And this is a shot of the same section of river on Wednesday. Note the yellow bush on the far bank in both pictures. Of course, the bush is actually on the bank in the earlier picture, but is in the water in the second shot. In any event, the island of growth in the first shot is just fricking gone in the Wednesday shot, and I don't think it's under water. Carrie Underwood, baby - blown away.
