Caught On Camera: Upstate New York Home Floats Away In Local Creek After Severe Flooding
PORTLAND, N.Y. (CBSNewYork) – An unimaginably terrible sight for a homeowner in upstate New York was caught on camera.
"It's gonna take my house I think… Oh no," the homeowner said watching her house float away in fast-moving waters.
Flooding in the area became so severe after heavy rain storms that the house was swept away in a Portland, New York creek Friday.
Portland is about 65 miles northeast of Syracuse.
In that same county, an 82-year-old priest died in the flood waters.
