  1. Please vote for a Governor and Mayor who will have work done on your city. Stop electing these fools in, who should have notified everyone to avoid driving through flooded streets!!

  2. This extreme weather is also due to climate change. Massive rains associated with thunderstorms will be more frequent and intense as the world continues to heat up. We need to stop global warming, or these tragedies will repeat more and more.

  3. Matthew 24:37 But as the days of Noah were, so also will the coming of the Son of Man be. :38 For as in the days before the flood, they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noah entered the ark, :39 and did not know until the flood came and took them all away, so also will the coming of the Son of Man be.

  4. Why live here when rent is so high and this keeps happening? Why buy a car if this keeps happening and it totals your car? Why deal with all the riots? Why deal with all the Traffic? Why deal with all the crime? Why not solve the flooding problems? Hey New York, share your water with states that are in a drought!
