As most of us probably know, an awful flood swept across southern West Virginia and parts of western Virginia last Thursday, killing 20+ people, with several still missing. The originally forecasted 1.5 inches of rain turned into 8-10 inches in less than a day. It is being described as a 1000-year event.
As a lifetime resident of Greenbrier County, West Virginia, I have never witnessed anything like this. Every so often the Greenbrier River and feeding creeks will flood a little bit and people along their banks have to evacuate, but we have never had a flash flood, nor have we seen a flood of this magnitude since the 1980s. Houses have been swept away, roads have been washed away, people have died, people are still missing, and 44 of the 55 counties in the state are under a state of emergency.
I would like to ask the members of The Key Play to keep the victims of this awful tragedy in your thoughts and prayers. Thank you very much!
