I've fished all around Grand Isle back in my younger days and it's easy to imagine how horrible the damage ?could? be. :shock:

Just the remnants of Ida crawled north and caused catastrophic flooding in parts of New Jersey and New York City. We just got heavy rain, no damage.

Yep. Saw videos today of floodwaters pouring into the subways.

We've been sending up Prayers for our Northern Neighbors today. WOW, that was very unusual for a Hurricane to maintain that kind of strength and power when going across Land. :whiteflag:

It's horrible to see how the bad weather break havoc on you. I've seen it on the news and it's heartbreaking.
