Warning: I’m going to add to your sickness.
All these people being interviewed are giving the impression that they are confident that was not uncommon ... one couple said “we rode our stairway” like a raft after their house destroyed. They saw others swept away. Crystal Beach/ Port Bolivar area. They still haven’t gotten cameras on those spots.
With the number of people reported to have stayed, I haven’t yet gotten over the fear of major casualties. I still hope like crazy that is not the case. Its going to be several days, I think, before we get a good read.
I have my suspicions as to why.
Yep, I think when rescuers get to the flooded areas, the fatality count will rise. One reporter this afternoon said he heard fatality numbers from LE, but didn’t want to repeat the numbers until they were confirmed.
New news: a couple of oil rigs have broken loose in the gulf.
“I haven’t yet gotten over the fear of major casualties.”
I am wondering...could this be a case of the government, um in denial?? I am not trying to be a conspiracy theorist, but I heard something one time about how the death numbers from hurricane Andrew were “low-balled”....
