Then, were the real thing happens, people tend to ignore the warnings.

Yep.

When the National Hurricane Center put their maps out on I think Wednesday. They were showing these large potential rain amounts in these areas.
I saw that and was shouting at my phone this will be catastrophic , get out.
Predictions were very accurate unfortunately

But, flooding from intense rain fall?

It happens. This flood was due to snow pack then massive rain:

Willamette Valley flood of 1996

I just got a couple texts from my sister. She said everyone is OK. They have a generator, and itโ€™s still working.

Thank God!

Praying for everyone who has been affected by Helene.

I live in Baton Rouge. We deal with this literally every year down here. City after city smashed by hurricanes. My heart goes out to Appalachia. No one deserves this.
