The Storm of the Century?

There was a lot of talk radio yesterday about how bad the storm was going to be last night. From where I sat in Bellevue, there wasn't a whole lot of close lightening strikes or anything fun, but there was lots of rain. Nobody panic, I couldn't have been going five mph when I took these, and there was no traffic on the road. These pictures were taken at the south bridge at twin creek in Bellevue. There were two workers on the bridge shoving debris under the water so it wouldn't jam up.

I'm not a civil engineer, but I'm kind of wondering why you wouldn't leave some clearance between the top of the dike and the bottom of the bridge ... just asking.
