(Please post here what measures your character / group of characters are taking during the floods!)
Iacomus had found a pair of furres arriving to the door at the time of the flood, giving one stranger resuscitation and keeping an eye on another that had succumbed to sickness.
Father Von Jonke, as he is in most matters, was adamant in keeping the kits within castle walls in case of worse or imminent flooding. The orphanage caretaker, in the custody of six kits, agreed with the motion.

Willow and the miners have been rather busy since the nightfall before the rains halted. Into the night and just before dawn. They were busy making a floodgate at the mine's entrance. There's also work to position rubble and sandbag bearing mine-carts in a circle outside in the quarry yard. Though Willow is helping with the construction, and had helped with the mine-cart filling and positioning, it could be a while until it is complete as the miners have there own houses as well to worry about. Plus Willow had paroling to do. At the moment, getting what water had leaked in out with buckets seemed the priority.
Raefaelin had been up early, helping fill burlap with soil from the mines to use at the shore where tide was getting over the edge of the banks and creeping into the fields. She'd done as much as she could before going for a shovel and assisting to trench around the buildings in town that were near the ponds, lake, and water ways. No doubt if the rain started once more, it would be a little before the brink.
Beasts of burden and food animals have been moved up to the castle, as well as the children from the orphanage. A large supply of food has also been moved from its traditional storage near the farms up to the castle to keep it dry. Patrols have been relaxed, and soldiers put on rotating work shifts in order to help the town prepare and recover. Notices posted read;
If you find yourself in trouble or need, the castle gates are open. Seek high ground.
Though open, the castle gates have a heavier guard presence than usual.
