5:40 am - 10.17 mile loop around the lake, through Schilling Farms, Poplar Ave, Peterson Lake Rd. Felt strong. Later in the day, the remnants of now tropical storm Fay came through, and it rained really hard in a short period of time. My son's apartment building in midtown Memphis flooded, so we were all up until midnight, cleaning up the mess. Lots of water on the first floor. Fortunately, he was home at the time and was able to move a lot of things upstairs as the water came in. Unfortunately, his car also got flooded, with the water more than halfway up the doors, and in the engine. Looks like it is totaled.
