Susan & I were impacted by Hurricane Harvey, which was a lot more flooding, but few deaths because we had days of warning. We were so fortunate to not have water enter our home. We helped clean up four homes that had about two feet of water and lots of mud. Several EPG members were not as fortunate. One of our close friends had six feet of water in her home for several days.
The death toll of the flash flooding on July 4th was much worse because the river rose so fast (more than 26 feet in less than an hour) in the middle of the night.
