    I had just had lunch with friends and literally, thank you guardian Angels, left Ellicott city minutes before the flood first flood hit. And was five ten minutes out of Ellicott city, lunch with friends and shopping, I love Ellicott city and it's a favorite place to visit when I am in the area, for the second time around.......... My spirit guardians are spot on 🤗💜😇

    No mention of the extensive development that was allowed to take pace around Ellicot City that exacerbated the flooding by channeling water down into the historic area...How is it that the county zoning commission was not fired and jailed for causing this catastrophy?

      @@shenanigansone8172 how about looking at the town's history, to see if this has been a problem for while? Every city, over this past decade, has been building these vast strip malls... and generic IKEA looking apartments and condos, or "flats" as hipster yuppies call them. Flooding in Houston was made even worse by this too, by paving over everything. This could make climate change effects even worse.

      @@psychedelicfright85 exactly, I live less than 3 minutes away from the flooding areas, and they just keep adding more construction. Nothing has been tore down to prevent flooding as far as I know. People even want to build apartments next to there. The land was an old factory and honestly they should either put a park or let the water run through there and tear the whole thing down

    They removed a ton of dirt upstream for urban development. The water had a natural dam then it didn't.

    It's not more storms but the new developments channeling water down into the historic area...

    This is on top of the massive fires the town has seen and train derailment on the bridge that killed two high school girls right after their graduation.

    You need to relocate. Global warming. Melting ice. Oceans rising. Increased evaporation. Increased rain. More flooding. More destruction. It won't stop. You'll need some "Moles" to excavate 40' diameter flood tunnels for miles. Then the outlet zones will need help. Then more moles... then more moles. Etc.

    That area is a very very very low point. And not really too far from there is a dam. Why no one is talking about water possibly coming from that area. I say this because the water that was flowing through those streets look as if it was overflow from a dam or some pressure system
