Here are a few photographs taken during the May 2006 flood in Saugus. Note that all but one were taken on the 15th between around 3:00 and 7:00 PM, well after the water level had already started to drop. With the exception of the photographs of Sweetwater Street, Howard Street, and the IHOP parking lot, and the they were all taken by Dennis Robitaille.
The Sweetwater Street and Howard Street shots were taken by Saugus.net staff.
The IHOP parking lot was taken by Isaac Davis on the morning of the 17th. Even though the water level has been dropping for a couple days, it's still pretty deep in spots.
