"prayers" Why? Haven't you people realized by now that prayers do nothing?

Water doesn't care about your prayers.

My hometown…. My grandparents built a house there in 1950 on a street where flooding wasn’t even something that would cross your mind. They lived in it over 70 years, and never even had water in their basement. It was dry, and no floods ever came remotely close to them until 2014, which was unfathomable at that time. Their old house had at least several feet of water around it yesterday, which is difficult for me to even comprehend. Same for my aunt and uncle, whose house had never been flooded, and they had to wade out to rescue in the middle of the night. My heart goes out to so many people. This isn’t an example of poor preparation or poor choice of where to build a town. This is such an unprecedented flood that it’s difficult to comprehend. I’m just so saddened to see this…

Those rubber inflatable dams would have prevented much of this for a couple of thousand dollars. Sad that this happened.

What with the core of army engineers shouldn't they have been working on a plan to alleviate the flooding problems throughout this country.

"core" wrong, it's corps. Just saying.

Do they have flood insurance?
@easyb6228 күн бұрын
Most of them do not have flood insurance. They are going to have to rely on FEMA.

Living on a flood plain is not a good idea.

Burning fossil fuels anywhere on this earth, and emitting greenhouse gases is not a good idea. Look it up.

Neither is living in an earthquake zone. Or a fire zone. You get the idea. There's no safe place on this fallen earth to live, so piss off.
