That said, your story should have compelled me to at least check our (unfinished) basement. I hadn't been down there since before the rain started.

Fortunately, most everything is up on shelving. Anything that was on the floor is wet. Very wet. One pair of vintage speakers that were on a large piece of carpet, some rugs, a large piece of carpet and some vintage stereo and speaker boxes (sad face). I have one quite rare Yamaha 3020 receiver that I had the original inner, outer, and shipping box for. All wet. F*K

It could have been worse. I have 20+ pairs of vintage JBL's down there. Water wicked up around the perimeter wall on 2 sides and a bit through some minor floor cracks.

I've got a box fan and space heater going and put the HVAC fan on full.

It must have all come the last 2 days here because the wife went down to wash clothes Wed night and didn't notice anything. The rug in front of the W/D was really soaked.
Sorry to hear this, basement floods are the worst. I couldn't tell you how many times my parents basement flooded. The walls were cinder blocks, not concrete, I bet that place is cesspit of mold these days.
