Massive Flash Flood in Ellicott City MD Last Night

[Warpy]

3. Here's the aftermath, looks like it was taped after the gas was shut off

Downtown is just gone. Anything on the first floor was pretty much erased, one place even lost its sheetrock and is down to the studs.

This is beyond sad. I can vaguely remember the place from when I was a little kid and we'd pass through on the way to one beach or another.

Then again, the first flood I can remember was when the Potomac flooded. My dad had his blinders on and kept driving, water over the floor of the car. It was a 1950s tank, so we made it OK. Those old cars were big and heavy and good for at least that much.
