My dad called and said my brother lost his trailer park. 6 trees fell on the houses and demolished it. No one got hurt. EV1 evacuated. But, looks like he lost his business start up.

Major flash flooding in Roanoke, Va. Several swift water rescues.

We got MUCH more rain that they called for. UGH

So sorry to hear Dear.

Kettle left to boil, what's the next name on the list?
I guess that's his sister Nadine hiding out in the Atlantic.

Yes, we were caught off guard on this one

The war with Germany arrived off the coast of Mexico Beach in the summer of 1942. In June of that year, the British oil tanker Empire Mica was sailing from Baytown, Texas, laden with oil and bound for the East Coast. To avoid German submarines, unescorted ships were ordered to sail by day and lie low in the nearest port at night. At Port St. Joe, the crew of the Empire Mica learned their ship’s draft was too great to make entry and continued on in the night. The unarmed and unescorted oiler, silhouetted by a full moon against clear sky, was an easy target for even the greenest U-boat crew. The ship was torpedoed and sunk at 1:00 a.m. on June 29, losing 33 crewmen. During the spring and summer of 1942, German U-boats operated with near impunity in the Gulf of Mexico, sinking Allied ships from Texas to Florida. By the war’s end, Germany had sent 56 ships to the bottom of the Gulf.
