Please remember when you leave your house even for a trip down the road to make sure you bring your life saving medicine. Things like this can happen at anytime. Good luck everyone
I used to drive a semi , I've driven through all kinds of weather . I had to park for a 10-hour break in many places I didn't want to be . I, too, Just wanted to go home .
I feel bad for these people, I hope they were able to get in touch with their families.
These people will never comprehend that coastal areas flood. It's always historic weather with these people.
At one point they had 15” in 3 hours. That’s a historic pace up there. Down here we’ve had 2 historic floods in 2 years. I’ve been in multiple floods in S FL through the years but they didn’t have rainfall rates like the last 2. They were historic for that reason
@@mauallison7755 That's not historic.
Horrible @@mauallison7755
It never actually became a tropical depression. But, man, so much rain...😮
North Carolina doesn't usually have to deal with this level of rain and flooding. Plus, I don't think the residents were properly warned. I don't think the authorities were prepared for this. I'm in central N.C. and we got a tremendous amount of rain, inland.
where is a food truck when you need one...state needed to dispatch port-o-potties.
People need water and food. Get some to them!!! Or is the stores flooded too????
Everyone be safe God bless you all ✝️🕊️🇺🇸
Several people just dont get it
Always have a dry box in your car
The whole southern borders of The US is
In danger ⚠️ of sinking
A little rain 🌧️ should not
Cause all these problems
Look at Miami Sarasota, Fort Lauderdale, parts of Georgia, Alabama north and South Carolina all the way up the coast…
I’m wondering if the 🌊 sea 🌊 is slowly taking
The land? Unless not forget about Texas and Louisiana the entire southern border has this issue yet no one saying anything….
“The Domino Effect”
stop being on the damn road I am so sick of people not doing the right thing if there is bad weather stop driving
Those people being stuck in this heavy downpour leading to flooded areas has NOTHING to do with you!! So why are you so butt hurt about it?!?! 🙄
We told yall to come up out of her my people that you be not a part of her sins and plagues! Selah!!!!!
As far as eye can see you lost me
THE ONLY REASON WHY I WOULD NOT LIVE IN NORTH OR SOUTH CAROLINA IS THAT THEY JUST DO NOT BUILD HARDENED HOMES BY THE COAST LIKE FLORIDA DOES! ITS JUST AS NECESSARY, AS WELL AS FLOOD MITIGATION!
I WISH THE BEST FOR THOSE FAMILIES AFFECTED!
That's not the problem the problem is the fact is that humans keep burning fossil fuels releases carbon dioxide which is the primary gas that is overheating planet Earth 90% of all the thermal radiation just being absorbed in the world's oceans. That continues to cause the ocean temperatures take a break past the 86 and 90 degree range that continues to evaporate substantial larger volumes of water vapor into the atmosphere many continents have been hit by Major flooding pair the storm drain system of the 50s and 60s it's not designed to handle higher precipitation rates in many countries including the east coast and the Gulf States
you figure with modern computing technology that somebody somewhere would figure out how to model storms, pending rainfalls, and most importantly, areas that may flood...perhaps save a few rescues, let folks move cars, auto, boats RVs to higher grounds, fewer insurance payouts, fewer dollars spent on rescues. Seems insurance companies and city governances would demand such a thing.
The folks at the National Weather Center do model storms all the time and with super computers and yet because of unpredictable variability in weather it is still hard to accurately predict how the weather will behave all the time. But they do get it right quite often.
Looks like a lot of water there to me Raymond Paul Sullivan III me myself and I and him RPS 111
we don't make the event, we make it historical. This message brought to you by Global Warming.
Nice to see that somebody gets it.
@@extraart1And thank you. Global warming is real sadly.
