Apartment flood

It's never a good sign when you get home, open your front door and water comes out. That's precisely what happened for my friend Gwenn (she lived across the hall in the old apartments.) She had left at 8 this morning and by the time she got back home at 8 tonight, there was 2 inches of water all around her upstairs apartment and the water running down the walls took out the electricity of the downstairs apartment. A pipe had burst in bathroom sometime while she was gone.
The water was squiggied to the stairs and sent cascading down. Given the incredibly dry climate is was amazing how fast the floors dried.

The dye in her carpets bled. Cleanup is going to take a long time.
