Yet the usual naysayers will still scoff that it’s just s storm, YAWN, and the reports of the damage being way overblown.
It was really just a big nothingburger. The warnings were just overhyped.
Meteorologists are regularly castigated for warning of folks of impending danger in storms and this is an example of why. Nobody knows for sure what each storm will bring and they all have the potential for loss of life and property.
So whether it’s many or few, or it directly affects you personally at all, for those who it does affect, it IS a big deal and the warnings were needed.
And this one is apparently going to affect us all in one way or another if this mine was heavily damaged. Not to mention the resources rebuilding are going to use up, causing shortages elsewhere and rising prices, and the affect the storm had on crops that were being grown this year.
These people need our prayer, not our scorn.
Then they should watch this. It's probably the most minor of what these people experienced, yet I cannot imagine what it was like for them. This couple miraculously survived. Hundreds (at least) did not.
And this is just the first 60 seconds of the FLASH FLOODING. "My car is gone. Everything is gone, it's all gone."
