How many times a year can you have a thousand year flood? Is it every year ?

Why do they always feature towns that no one outside of a 10 mile radius of those towns has ever heard of?

We have had flooding in NE Vermont twice in the last few weeks worst than in over 130 years.

That's why I don't live on the West Coast of Florida, and I was born in Tampa. It can't even take a Cat. 1. It's a really low-level area. On the East Coast, this wouldn't have done much.

Don't send federal aid, think DeSantis likes thoughts and prayers.
