I'm glad it's getting so much coverage, hopefully it'll help with the efforts. It's going to take a lot of clean-up; we're still cleaning up some parts here.
We had really bad flooding up here back in March, and people are still cleaning up/fixing their houses, too. I think the difference between the floods here and what's going on in South Louisiana is that people had time to get out. They knew ahead of time that flooding was going to hit most of the places that got flooded. With the current flood, it was all flash flooding, which caused many people to be caught unaware in their houses.
