Exactly.
Remind me again how many people live on reunion island. A perfect storm has way more to do with than the intensity of the storm. It also has to do with where it hits
Remind me again how 21 feet of rain is nothing.
Thank you for your comments. They are obviously the product of a good mind and an even greater heart. It is unfortunate that some people live in a cold, dark, barren world in which neither logic nor emotion can reach them. Oftentimes they have the bigger microphone. But their loud voices do not make them right. Many people read, but only a few comment. Don’t despair. I believe that many more are with you than with them.
Have a great week.
This "storm" has affected an area the size of New Jersey and affected the same number of people who live in Pennsylvania.
In addition, the amount of rain that has fallen would completely fill the Chesapeake Bay. Whew!
Not bad for a "storm". By the way, a number of areas have surpassed 50 inches of rain. They will be talking about this "storm" a century from now and so will your wallet since it will take tens of billions, if not more to rebuild.
By the way, the water is still increasing, but should start to go down tomorrow.
Wow! That's a lot! /s
This "storm" has affected an area the size of New Jersey...
Wow! Hurricane Sandy affected all of NJ, half of NY, Connecticut, MA and several other states.
and so will your wallet since it will take tens of billions, if not more to rebuild.
Wow! You're still paying for the three storms that hit my town.
Actually one wasn’t a storm-caused flood but you’re still paying for it.
As if that’s relevant to anything whatsoever.
