Yeah it's crazy. Saw the subway videos on news this a.m. Storm dropped like more or either the same amount of rain in 12 hrs that usually get in a month, I think they said. Many people from N.O on up are in a horrible way. Very sad

I feel bad for the people of NO. What they went thru was an absolute nightmare. We had it bad in the NYC area but it was nothing compared to what they went thru.

This is true. Some had it much worse than others. For me I was lucky as my basement remained dry. Two Sump pumps and a French drain will do that.

My daughter is about 20 miles away from Mullica Hill... She said, just a ton of rain... Now it's nice.

It's nice by me as well. Your daughter was right. The amount of rain was just crazy. I know other areas of the country have gotten it worse but that was the worst I can remember getting by me.
