So, this happened in Alaska's capital city of Juneau Saturday night! Lots of damage due to the glacial outburst.

#Juneau’s record glacial outburst flood prompts evacuations and destroys at least 1 home

"The source of this weekend’s #flooding is a #glacial dam outburst flood from #SuicideBasin, above the #MendenhallGlacier. An update from the National Weather Service described record flooding of waterways and low-lying areas, along with flooding 'in areas that have not previously seen flooding before.'"
