Changed forever

[Meyer Jordan]

This shows the scope of the damage that this storm has caused.

A lot of ponds have been lost, but more importantly the loss in human life, personal possessions, economic costs and lives that have been changed forever.
My prayers are for those affected.

 

[Tula]

It's truly catastrophic

 

[RobAmy]

Tough to imagine just how bad it is and what is still to come

I can't believe what I am seeing and hearing on the tv and radio. It's horrendous and I am so sorry to hear that lives were lost. I hope and pray this storm takes no more souls. It is wonderful how people are coming together to help each other.

 

[DutchMuch]

Amen

It is a reminder that we are at the mercy of nature. I pray that the recovery is as quick as humanly possible.

It will take years, if ever, to recover.

Those poor people and critters wild and tame

I still can't understand why some people stayed when they knew it was going to be bad .Get out life is to important .I saw one guy still looking for his family because they decided to stay on the island .I do hope he finds them though alive and well

 

[j.w]

I thought they told people to stay cuz w/ the size of the city it would be a disaster in itself to try to get all those cars out and where do they go?

Between 1996 and 2010, the Houston region lost 54,000 acres of wetlands to urban development.
In the next 40 years with projected population growth, there are an additional 100,000 acres at risk.
Wetlands mitigate damage from flooding.

Sorry to hear about this. Hopefully they can rebuild and save lives most important.

Be careful Meyer, looks like some tornado watches coming your way. We had 2 touchdown today.
