How can people continue to live in such an area? I'm not trying to be a prick or anything, I'm really curious. I'm sure there are people who live in Florida who have had to start from scratch several times in their lives due to the destruction of hurricanes. I guess the same goes for people who live in California and the effect of Earthquakes. It must start to weigh a person down having to pick up the pieces and start from square one everytime a hurricane hits. My heart goes out to you guys.
Keep safe.

You don't necessarily have to live in an area that's hurricane prone to be affected. Pennsylvania isn't exactly a place you expect to have affected by tropical systems. But we had record breaking rains today, 5.5 inches officially, over 7 inches in some areas.
But again, pictures tell the story better:
You can't tell, but this is the downtown area of the one local town.
And this would be the major highway that takes you to the airport from downtown...
This is one of the best shots--that thing in the water? That's the top of a firetruck.
Its been a crazy day in Western Pennsylvania.
