Heavy Prince William Flooding

From reporter Nick Miroff:

In Prince Wiliam County, storm drains have been overwhelmed, police said, causing widespread flooding and road closures along several major arteries. "We have a lot of flooding," said police dispatcher Maggie Reese.
"The roads are bad, and numerous roads are impassable. Tell people to stay in."

Dale Boulevard, Route 1, Nokesville Road, and other major roadways are flooded in several areas, Reese said, though there are no reports of stranded motorists or wash-outs. "We're getting houses flooded and we've got trees down, too," she said. "That's what we're in right now."

Prince William could float down the Potomac and nobody would miss it. In fact, it should just keep going around Florida into the Gulf and attach itself to Central America. Just desserts for a racist county.

How charitable of you Michael1945. You must be a shining light of humanity for your family, friends, and community.

Michael1945: obviously stupid and lucky enough to have never have anyone suffer through a major flood. I have a few televangelists who condemned New Orleans and the Mississippi Gulf Coast I can connect you with. Hope everything you have goes floating down Four Mile Run, or wherever you and your righteousness have established themselves.

Eh, don't feed the troll, y'all.

Out my window I can almost see the intersection of Godwin and Wellington and there's some light traffic moving along. It's windy and pouring but no flooding at our complex.

High and dry, Karen B. I literally look down on lowly mortals such as yourself. New Orleans can go with you to Central America. God's retribution coming home to pw county.
