How does a region that is nearly 500 miles from the Gulf become devastated by flooding?

During what was one of the worst times in my life, I took a solo vacation to Asheville and Chimney Rock. The people there were some of the most lovely and inviting people I'd ever met. Literally the kindness of strangers and the beauty of that place healed my soul to make it through. It breaks my heart to see that town destroyed.
Except we’re not destroyed. I made a post about how that kindness you’re describing is more strong than ever. Our physical reality is fucked but our psychological and emotional health is spry.
Thank you for that post. I told a friend about it irl today and broke into tears, because even though this is terrible, the story of solidarity is what I at least desperately needed to hear, even though I am a world away.
I hope you and everyone there will be ok. Same goes for all in NC, it's the one and only place I've visited in the USA and as I no longer use FB I have no idea what happened to people I used to know there.
Awh thanks, it really means a lot that that little wall of text had some sort of impact.
I saw that post and it heartened me to know the community is coming together even more. Y'all are beautiful and my heart goes out to you.
