Flash flooding is the second-deadliest weather hazard, after heat waves.
A river rose 20 feet. 230 people evacuated, but many remain unaccounted for. Among them are 20 girls from a campsite, where the owner tried what she could but died among 24 others so far.
Since it happened in a red state, we will be spared from Trump coming to throw toilet paper or patronize the local that they rack up the river bank too much. Need trees and lots of vegetation near these banks, he would say, as long as it's not a fire. As his genius brain would spew out greedy nonsense.
The local authority mentioned they had not received a proper warning, they are flooded all the time, they said... Perhaps if the national weather services had not gone through so major cuts, 20 girls would be alive.
No mention of FEMA in Trump's or Abbot's response so far
