America a funny country who dont really believe in climate change, even though they suffering more severe weather events in recent years.
Daughter was in her me of those summer camps last year.. it's Scary how quick flash floods cause so much damage and how ill prepared we really are to preventing then
We had one here in NYC in 2021. Think it was ten inches of rain in little over an hour. I've never seen anything like it. We had a whitewater river running down our steps into our basement, but got off lightly with the damage. About half a mile away, a Nepalese couple and their young child got trapped in their basement apartment and drowned, as it filled up so quickly they didn't have time to get out. The drainage system in the city simply wasn't built to cope with that quantity of water.
