Default Alton

Several roads closed in town (Merrymeeting river has come over the Letter S road, also flooded Jones field where the kids play baseball/softball.) Parker Marine docks are basically underwater with water in the parking area. Downing's is underwater. Up on Alton Mountain, the Frohock creek became a raging river and wiped out the road into Alton shores (nice picture McDude, and sorry about the road into your place). Rand Hill Rd had about a third of the eastbound lane just above where the stream crosses the road wash out. Town filled the area with stone and put out cones. There were some areas on Rte11 between West Alton and Ames Farm that had water running across the road. West Alton Marina's road got washed out about even with the first field on the left. I'm sure there are others (haven't been down rte 140).
