[@msyahwey4ever]

Great footage, I'm betting you're wet? Take care and thank you!

[@indexMemories]

I wonder how government helps recover if you happen to find yourself with a flooded house and a destroyed car. What's the procedure in the states? Do taxes cover it? Or they have like programs that help these people?

[@FaithwalkerTodd]

Why did they build a neighborhood in the middle of a lake bed?

[@sajdoweifjowj3651]

Faithwalker no that’s the Charleston river now
