By 4:30am I was finally able to fall asleep and was woken every 15 min or so by the firetrucks pulling in and out of the firehouse (which is right across the street from the in-laws house). Needless to say I didn't sleep much Saturday night.
In the morning after it stopped raining we ventured out of the house to see what the damage looked like around town. At this point the flooding hadn't really started yet - the only way out of town was Rte 287.
This is what the Queens Bridge looked like around 11am on Sunday 8/28
This is the Queens Bridge about 2 hours later
The Queens Bridge around 4pm on Sunday 8/28
At this point the only way out of town was taking Elizabeth Ave to Amwell
and hoping that whichever way you needed to go wasn't flooded also
Do you think it was windy out? This picture cracks me up.

The poor house on the right was completely surrounded by water :(
