VIDEO: Jim Olson moved into his home on Hudson Street in 1965. In the 54 years since, he’s seen a lot of flooding in his backyard. That will happen when the property borders moving water. “It was just getting better until last year,” Olson said. “Then, everything went wrong then.” When it started raining, Olson and some others posted up in his garage to watch the storm roll in. “Two guys come over and say, ‘We're here to rescue you.’ I said, ‘What are you talking about? We've gone through this before.’” Olson said. “They said, ‘Well, the water's really coming.’ And they were right and we weren't.” Olson and his wife, Rose, left through the front door on a boat. They had to leave behind most of their possessions, prescriptions and medical devices they rely on.
