Flooding in WV

[Yoder409]

Used to hunt Greenbrier A LOT.

Have some VERY close friends there, all of which are OK.

MANY are not.......................... I got about 30 pics texted to me this morning and it is worse than what one can imagine............

Where I used t do all of my hunting............................you cant get there anymore.  No roads left.............   But there's also a town up there that is STILL inaccessible..........   no one can get in or out..................

Pray for these people.   It is BAD.

Got back late last night from helping restore power to Wv. It was pretty bad, we were in Jackson County Goldtown area. Saw several homes pushed off the foundations  floating in creeks and rivers. West Virginians are good people and they will get through this.

If the eastern panhandle got through the flood of '85, they'll get their way through this one as well. I bet there will be much less looting than took place down south as well.

Well, I stand corrected, again. Was hoping I didn't have to eat those words. Wonder if it'll get as bad as it was down south? Guess it shouldn't come as a big surprise at this point considering that heroine and prescription drug OD is drastically on the rise in this state. Was hoping we'd pull through this one but apparently I was wrong. Just wish people would understand that when they are down, others are as well. Shame really. Thanks for snapping me back to reality Eddie.

They interviewed a lady on the news last night who said they had people coming in taking everything. So sad.

Bad situation my prayers go out to all involved. I did like the sheriff's response to looting.
