People always associate Camille with The Gulf Coast, but it killed over 200 people in Virginia from floods.
that was just flat out bizarre what she did over Virginia. They are still not sure exactly what happened and why. 31 inches of rain in about 6 hours. The forecast called for cloudy with a “chance” of showers. Read a few books about that night. Just incredible.

“Camille ... killed over 200 people in Virginia from floods.”
