Glad that you step-mom made it okay. Your warning about the power of water is spot on. Even a six inch flow of water can knock you off your feet. And you don't know what else is in that water. I've been thinking of the impacted people too. It's tragic when lives are lost. As our climate changes there will be more extreme weather.
