Huge Flood In Maine Takes Farmers Hay And Does This To The Nearby Forest

- I do not encourage anyone to enter culverts, unclog anything, or enter flooded areas as it can easily become deadly without the proper training
I unclog drains for fun in my spare time (I have been trained in culvert inspections for years with private co.) and I am osha trained.
Exploring anything abandoned can be dangerous or deadly without experience. I don't encourage anyone to enter any abandoned structures. Not only is safety a concern, but often times its illegal, and when possible I seek out permission from the owner or local police. I simply go to document its history before it's gone forever and I leave things the way I find them. I only take pictures and only leave footprints. I assume all the risks and responsibility before doing this. Please don't attempt to do this on your own. There could be nails, asbestos, falling concrete, soft floors, animals, or other hazards. Thanks for watching.

that flooding was unbelievable! Glad you showed it to us.
People are kidding themselves thinking they can master nature. Mother Nature is SO powerful and we are so small. Thanks for teaching us about what we are seeing! Excellent lesson.
IT’s weather control not Mother Nature
We pissed off Mother Nature. Actually earth doesn't care what we do to them or ourselves. Earth reinvents themself whenever.
@@annlyon.2040weather control? Is the government the one controlling it?
Yeah right! We have DOMINATED nature for a long time already
Mother nature doesn't exist.
2:30 A garage where the community fire apparatus was kept. Un-manned building.
someone should save the siren that's on it
You are awesome Post 10. I appreciate your efforts to keep us informed and showing us all of these places 😊
The plastic you saw is what remains of the wrapping of the hay bales.
The bales themselves were taken by the water shredded, and strewn in the trees!
Thank you Post 10. Lots of flooding around the country lately.
Culverts, Bridges and Ditches, oh my…. mentioned you in one of their videos❤❤❤
That forest looked like one of their Oklahoma floods for sure!
They could learn so much from you if they would only watch you.
I live in Maine. We saw log islands moving down the Kennebec - and furniture and roofs.
Stay safe and take care my friends 🫶🏻 Thanks Post! Appreciate you 🙏🏻
Wow! The water was powerful. Thank you Post.
I’m in Australia but have friends in Maine so this was great to see thanks heaps
thank you Post 10
At 2:28, you can see under one of the garages doors of the fake brick building and straight through down into the stream. The whole back and/or foundation of that building must be completely gone!
As someone who lives in Maine, "Northern Maine" is very different depending on where you are. Are we talking Lincoln/Bangor or are we talking allagash/houlton?
Watch every video BTW. You know how it goes, New England folks enjoy watching stuff that talks about our little slice of the world.
Yeah, as someone with family from 'The County', I always laugh at what some people call 'Northern' Maine:)
🧟♂️🧟♂️🧟♂️
Maine's only exist on Male Lions 🦁
🙊🙊😂🤣😂🤣😂
Echoing this - Since you were in Avon, you're actually in Western Maine and have a good 3 hours more drive to get into true Northern Maine, where I grew up (Small town of Crystal, up in The County). However, watching your opening, recognizing the intersections and that particular field, I've been through that area a number of times for work, and it is indeed beautiful and dangerously flood prone under the right conditions.
Thank you for the blast from the past!!
@@statementleaver8095 Well played, but ugh:P
@@JeremyKeeneDrougnor Yeah, you gotta be able to see into Canada to be really up North (at a minimum).
Interesting stuff thanks. Chris from England
How powerful were the flood waters? Round bales can weigh upwards of 1,750 lbs. EACH 😱
I recall trying to roll one as a small child much to my dad's amusement. Then I learned what a wolf spider was when one decided to befriend me! ^^
Mass isn't the important thing here. Density and buoyancy are. According to the University of Georgia school of Agriculture a round baler usually tops out at a density of 12 pounds per cubic foot for the density of the finished bale (assuming relatively dry hay, remember of course also that hay is usually lots of air and hollow tubes). This works out to about 0.2 grams per cubic centimeter, about a fifth that of the water it's trying to float in. Something floats (in water) when the mass of the water displaced = the mass of the object itself. So to start floating that hay bale only needs to get like a quarter submerged (probably closer to a third to account for it taking on water) for a 6 foot tall hay bale that's only 2-3 feet, maybe a little more. The waters here where obviously much higher than that.
Well, it's a question of whether the water took it all at once, or ablated through it with the current a piece at a time. The bales are heavy, but if they're unwrapped or better yet already laid down on the ground spread out, then it's much easier.
Boats weigh a lot too but it doesn't take a lot of water to float one.
The flied could have been cut. When you create hay you cut a field and you let it dry before baling the hay round or rectangular bales.
That was so much water! How terrible for the farmers. 😢. Hopi they recover from the damages. Thank for posting.
That's an insane level of flooding
A different vid from you but I agree very interesting - obviously a significant flood to get debris to that height - thanks for sharing
Holy moly Post 10, you're going to have some work to do. Good luck!
Greetings Post10,
You wouldn't believe how familiar Japanese Knotweed is here in the UK, it's a major problem here on riverbanks,railway embankments and old dump sites.
We also have another one called Himalayan Balsam.
Best wishes to you from Wales.👍
Thanks for showing the water damage.......my cousin has family in Patten, ME....way up in Northern part...I could see Mount Katahdin while up there............
The December flood here in Maine was the largest in the last 100+ years by far. It was truly wild to see. So much landscape here has changed. I live in the worst flood zone of the Androscoggin, so it was pretty crazy seeing all the cars floating around so far from the river.
Insane unsettling scenery. Feels straight out of a horror film.
Professor Post 10 excellent lesson today 😊😊🎉🎉🎉❤❤
Very interesting 💯
Maybe it's my age, but I used to see that kind of siding a lot when I lived back in Kentucky. They used it especially on gas stations.
Are you referring to the Aroostook River? It had a case of freezing, thawing, jamming, then the jam refoze, then the big later flood!
The phone clicks might be a sign that your phone is roaming, if you're on the fringe of your regular provider's service area. If you're close to the New Brunswick border, it might even be connecting to Canadian cell towers.
Thanks Post! Thats amazing!
Just another walk with my buddy Post 10. Thanks man!
13:03 the hay wrapped is similar to silage, it's green grass bailed. Generally it is done when temperatures or weather do not allow the hay to dry in spring or autumn.
The strips of white plastic probably are the shreds of the hay roll wrappings as the flood picked up the rolled hay.
That's so sad. I hope they can recover from this.
Awesome video as usual.
as usual i really enjoyed watching!
I've seen this type of siding around the foundations of houses. We live in Ohio. LOVE the work you do! You explain the outdoors like my dad did. 🙂
Great scenery.
Brilliant video .
Thanks for this! 💧
The siding on that garage reminds me of Mt. Vernon, the home of George Washington in Virginia. From a distance it appears to be stone, but it is actually beveled wood panels - sand was mixed with the paint and the result is that the all wood mansion appears to be built in stone.
Debris around tree's could be mother nature's way of setting up for the future events, thanks for sharing post!
You were not far from an abandoned radar site.
Wow so devastating
You're a true Horsefighter!❤
Wow, that was a serious flood, the power behind that flow must have been pretty dangerous. Incredible scene.
I bet that metal siding would be expensive today. I like it too.
12:27 -- The Maine School of Masonry is in Avon, Maine.
crazy to think that water was way up above that guardrail! damm
Wow! What an amazing post flood scene. What river is it? and when did the flood occur?
😮Great video !
I live in the mountains of West Virginia and we have some amazing floods I've seen the Guyandotte river be 30 foot down a hill below the road come all the way up over the road and on the other side of the road starts a mountain and it be 20 ft up on the mountain washing out bridges houses nothing but the slabs and some foundations I've seen mobile homes wrapped around steel bridges when the water receded 30 Foot in the air like a pop can the force water is no joke love your videos maybe you should come check out WV some day if you haven't already have a good day
Farmers make silidge and haylidge by wrapping the bale's in plastic 👍💚💛❤️
Hi Post 👋
The flooding by my house along the Kennebec River was very bad & scary. Closed a bridge that connects 2 towns together. It was a long way around
1:40 That doesn't look like brick at all, that looks like stone.
I've seen people doing this 'fake stone' wall look on UA-cam before - basically just concrete shaped to purpose before it sets, and sometimes even stained in segments to look like different stones.
You can even get driveways like this too, they are pretty rare, but I occasionally see them on pressure washing channels.
Said it before, and, I’ll say it again, " Thank you, post 10, for countless hours of pure bliss. I appreciate you more than you know.
I grew up in Illinois small town. Everyone called it "the firebarn".
Northern and western Maine were hit hard
You can still buy aluminum siding in square/rectangle panels or long strips in tons of different colors and crazy textures
I’d never thought about post-flood debris being caught in trees before. Cool!
For the farmers it is beond devestation my family farm are in a simmiler thoe of area close to a fjord and we had two massive flooding not only did it take out harvest but also food ect that the farmers need and it take cuple of years just to fix and grow back so not fun at all for farmers
Sheesh, just another reminder of why flooding freaks me out. Water is so necessary but so terrifying. Interesting video though.
U have a great day 2!!!
Cool very interesting
The thought of all that water is unsettling. :b
Mother nature always wins
that's tin used in ceilings usually on that buildings siding
Nature can amaze you on times, it can be so unpredictable too, people shouldn't second guess it too much .
Is your truck connected to your phone? Your phone could be picking up that you left your truck running and you are too far away from it.
That was an amazing flow of water! Is that rare or common there?
What's wildfire season like in Maine? I live just over in Nova Scotia and we had a bad one last year, I worry about all that hay getting dried out on a hot day and then sparking up.
What do you think is going to happen to those houses by the river, they look like they're about to fall in. are they gonna put a cement wall up to protect that from eroding anymore than it has, cause that looks Pacarious, scary 😨
Yes they have to build a wall
That sucks for the farmer.
Cool we would welcome a nice flooding here😎🌵
Í noticed the plastic. It's used to wrap hay rounds for fermentation. Cattle love it. There is a farmers insurance for agricultural, lets hope these farmers had it. Many people don't understand the power of water, or the fact that floods carry oil, dead animals, gas(from flooded cars), stove oil, homes, barns just about anything thats in the area. Flood water is not beautiful clear river water. Devastating 😢
. will your phone buzzes like that while you're recording it means you either go to text message or some kind of alert or phone calls coming in or there is a voice message on your answering machine it does it so that you don't get screw up your recording with a ring or stuff coming up on your screen like a text message because that'll show up in your recording if it's not turned off like you have it right now which means it just gives you a quick alert and that's it and you can check it later
Wow!.❤❤❤❤❤❤
I would never have noticed any of what you are showing, if you didn't stop and point it out. Vert interesting, Post. 👍
No one can csi flooding like post.
Might ask around and see if someone knows the owner of the building and maybe they would let you save the metal siding
That first shot of the river bank... why would anyone build there? Surely any even marginally competent surveyor would have looked at the bend in the river and suggested they build elsewhere? It's not like the way rivers move is considered a mystery --- I learned about meandering at school, which was disturbingly long ago...
at 0:29 that's scary erosion but what a beautiful house!
Post.. you're a forensic floodologist 😁
Dude, you can find out who owns the abandoned building with the awesome siding and maybe procure that for yourself?
My phone does the same thing! I thought I was imagining it!
Midwest Magic Cleaning says "Hi"!! He'd love to meet you!
Post 10 that is so very crazy on the erosions and have you heard about all of the flooding here in Central Texas from all of the past rain
Is this from when the Kennebec flooded in Dec?
When you said Northern Maine I was thinking Millinocket or north of that not Western Maine
My grand dad had metal siding and it rust............didn't look so good after 20 years.
Post 10 🙂👍👍🤔
Text messages sound like that !
The rain in Maine did not fall gentle on the plane.
When people ask what happens downstream after you unclog a culvert, you can send them this video. 😉 By the way, big floods like this actually contribute to refilling aquifers.
A lot of these flat areas within a valley or natural flood plains historically anyways
7:33 Probably because you have a bug in your phone!
Is this because of water release from a water dam?
Hi post well you’re always driving around looking for floods everywhere. The William Morris agency in Manhattan is still waiting for you for your audition. When are you gonna wise up with your good luxe you’re a talent your intelligence you can blow the competition out of the water so to speak love from all of us on Staten Island, New York, handsome
❤
Mother nature will take back what’s hers.
