It wasn't for everybody ya know. My area got hit pretty hard. A LOT of damage. It was crazy. The wind wasn't that much of a deal (30 mph maybe)as the rain was. It flooded really bad. My cousin lost his house, everything in it, his harley, his cars, and 3 out of 8 of his horses. But him and his wife are ok so that's the good news. It was about 25 min. away from me but the river that caused the flooding there, flows right by my house so I'm in the flood zone too. If it had kept raining for at least another two hours like the news had called for we would have been forced out of our house as well. At around 11:30 that night we took my husbands sports car to his grandmothers house for safe keeping, and kept our suv obviously, incase we had to leave later. They had Mark Warner (govenor or something) visit on Monday to survey all the damage. Oh yeah forgot, I'm from Va. (About four hours from Va. Beach.)
