        We are one of the fastest growing cities in the US. Development = concrete. Concrete=flooding. Go report on some protests or something.

        I'd say because we keep reporting these Storms are a 500 year event and since they had one just 4 years ago, what's the hurry.

        This video ignores that the main culprit is the absolute lack of normal zoning laws, which would prevent most catastrophic flooding.
