Well, the day started with a flooded basement and ended with a tornado warning. In between we installed a new sump pump and dried out half a dozen sopping wet Boy Scout troop sleeping bags. Tips for surviving a wet basement: Pack totes so that they won't overturn if they float off. Don't store them under anything else; if they can't float free, they'll overturn. Don't stack them; they'll overturn. Never put up on single 8" concrete blocks what can be put up on TWO 8" concrete blocks.
