I remember that one! So many dead from flooding. I believe it was the one where the news reporter looking for a hot story ran up to a little kid who had lost his parents in the flood, thrust a microphone in his face and said..”HOW DOES IT FEEL KNOWING YOUR PARENTS ARE DEAD?”
Oh man, sorry to hear that. Saw videos, unreal levels of devastation. Let us know what we can do. Maybe JimRob can set something up for you all.
I am alive, my wife is alive, my cats are alive. So our stuff is gone...we are blessed beyond measure.

No...that’s on me. I was trying to reach debt-free status in an era of high interest rates, took a chance, (it never floods around here), and the dice came up snake eyes. That’s life.
Thank you.
No, I’m here. I see the damage.
The problem is not the government per se. The problem unequivocally and inarguably is property in the flood plain.
This applies to medical, residential, retail and industrial locations built on the flood plain.
The real blame lies upon real estate sales people that ignorantly sell property on a flood plain.
That’s kind where we are. Our house is too old (1961) to get good insurance. Allstate cancelled us after over 30 years and never even a claim. Bastards. No mortgage. All that was left for us was ‘Citizen’s Insurance’ here in Florida at like $5000 a year for practically worthless insurance. So we cancelled and now whatever happens it’s on us..................
Your prayers for us are most welcome! Thank you.
Your kind words are MUCH appreciated! Thank you!
Videos/television do NOT do this justice...you need to see it in person. Thank you much for your prayers.
My sister sent me audio of a phone call message that was recorded on her son-in-law’s phone who was checking in on a friend near Cedar Key. It is heartbreaking to listen to. The devastation is so widespread. Those who were untouched by this storm are among the richly blessed, but when you’ve lost nearly everything, as you have, well, you have the right idea. We are blessed to have our lives and our loved ones with us.
Zero has a documented history of failing to render assistance to ‘red states’ (see Tennessee/Kentucky floods in past years).
You remind me of another blessing...I had the chance to speak to the MSM yesterday morning...pressing home the point that they needed to put more emphasis on charity and relief rather than wasting their air/print time on blather spewing from the yaps of politicians and other ‘spokespeople’. Ye gads.
What can we help with?
Storm hit Americans will be displaced by subsidized migrants and Deep State will buy prime property for cents on the dollar.
The problem is weaponized weather. Seeded clouds, chemtrails dispensing who knows what into the atmosphere.
Was just informed that they found the body of a three-month old baby in the town we lived in...OMG.
This appears to be a similar repeat of the flooding that hit BC, Canada a couple of years ago. It will take time but will eventually be fixed.
Ok, 1,000 year.
