At that time it was the worst natural disaster in US history....That was 36 yrs ago this past June 23rd...seems like yesterday.,...I feel for those people......The flood of '93 almost killed my wife when she was a kid. Not by any flash floods but by a mosquito. Gave her a virus that nearly killed her. People don't even realize the dangers this kind of stuff brings besides the obvious threats. Really is gonna be a long summer.
Oh and folks have the mosquito problem coming unless they do a mass spray. I heard it was rather bad after Katrina. I had a cousin tell me snakes were very bad after Katrina. He is a Firman that went down to NO to help after that storm.
