smart port of entry (Dundalk Md.) flood?

Just heard on our local news that Dundalk is flooded. Anyone has more info?
Lots of smarts come to the East Coast via Dundalk...

The picture above is from a neighborhood that's just across 695 from "our" parking lot.
My car stayed there for about 4-5 days for the usual custom procedure (stickers, connect battery, etc...) just before delivery 16 months ago! I post in Delivery only because some new arrivals may be affected.

As an ex-professsional mariner I am very familiar with Dundalk Marine Terminal and the Broening Highway that separates it from the Dundalk neighborhoods. I shouldn't worry about the smarts.

Good news, 'Old smart', I would not have liked anyone's car washed that much before delivery...

Though I feel sorry for those who did get their property flooded!

DUNDALK, Md. -- A break in a 6-foot-wide water main flooded a large section of this Baltimore suburb Friday, washing away part of a road, flooding cars and trapping some residents in their homes.

"The only people who had to be rescued were those who went in the water," Smith said.

Baltimore City public works crews stopped the flow to the break, which occurred about 4:30 p.m., about two hours later, said Don Mohler, a spokesman for Smith. By 8:30 p.m., the water had dropped to a maximum of 6 to 8 inches, Smith said. ...
