In 1993, I came home from work the memorial day weekend Friday to face major flooding. Large amount of snowfall during winter, along with a cool spring has caused the spring runoff to be late and violent. During that weekend a 3 foot wall of sandbags was all that saved my house from major damage.
The same summer, 1993, Fourth of July weekend, my house faced a range wild fire that turned around 300 yards from my back door.
Again, 1993, all of my trees were denuded of leaves, because the large amount of moisture in the ground had caused the grasshopper population to grow to biblical proportions.
I went to my insurance agent and asked if he could give me famine insurance, because I had already experienced 3 of the 4 plagues. fire, water, and pestilence.
