Prepare for the Floods

Tomorrow may be a tough day here in the valley. It appears that with the snow melt and the rains we may be in store for some very tough times in part of our valley due to flooding. Be prepared. Right now the snow melt has been good here in the Greenbrier Valley, but in Pocahontas there is just a lot of the stuff yet to melt. We have to get ready as the rain hits it.

I know that where I live I am always safe from flooding, but I am concerned about folks in the low lying areas. Our family has a camp on the Greenbrier River, and one never wants to lose property, but I also know that losing a camp is a bit easier than losing one's home. If the floods come I am sure that many will have damage in their homes.

For now we must remain vigilant. We must prepare for that which is ahead. Maybe if we are fortunate it will not come, and we will escape once more.

Enough for Now
