Most drowned in their own homes when it was swept away by flood waters. There was advanced warning (2 days) and people were not caught underground in the subway as was the case in China. I don't know if evacuation was ordered and if not - why not? I will look for an explanation from County and state officials.

were you waiting for floods and deaths in the US to get back at me? Is you life so sad and pathetic?

Residents said there were warnings — official ones and text messages and calls from friends — alerting them to the possibility of flooding. But some said they did not grasp the urgency of what was about to come. For others, they did not have time to do anything but brace for it.

Absolutely nonsense, how many Chinese actually killed in subway compare to flood in other area. Incompetent of american government shown. Despite plenty of warning and preparation ahead. I guess US is more concern with other things than american human lives.

You reap what u sow. What u bark just come back to bite u. The heaven just serve justice when idiots u gloat about China flood.

I didn't gloat, I explained on the other thread that I found it tragic that people were caught underground when flooding was expected. Again the key word is underground, the first place water fills during a flood and the last place people should go when floods are expected.

Please don't tag me again.
