Vermont has made the news -- a disaster area from flooding. Of course there are localized areas that are just devasted with rivers overflowing flood stage and dams threatening to fail. Hundreds have been evacuated to higher ground.
The news might give the impression that the entire state is under water. It has been rainy and I wish we could share with the places that need it so much.
Mother Nature does seem to be on a rampage lately but there are still lots of people who think global warming is just a hoax.
Things seem scary lately.
I hope you are safe with no damage. I did see those horrible swollen waterways and floods on the news. Everyone is upset about the weather changes, but no one is interested in what is causing it or any solutions, sadly.
ReplyDeleteI guess you are okay in your condo. Hope you can sell it soon and make Florida your permanent home. But disasters happen everywhere.
ReplyDeleteI agree, things are getting scarier everyday. We're going to see more mass exodus of areas that are no longer liveable. I don't think anyone is prepared for the influx of climate refugees.
ReplyDeleteIt was in Montepelier right? I've talked to "friend family" up there and they are fine so I assume you are as well. VT holds a special place in my heart.
ReplyDeleteThere were several towns that were flooded but I am dry so far. Elevation above the river is on my side!
DeleteGlad to hear the floods didn't hit you. I thought of you immediately. If you had our heat, it would dry up the floods but, alas, weather no longer works like that.
ReplyDeleteThis new phase of Mother Earth is not for the weak, old or faint of heart. We will adapt and adjust, but not without some pain, sadly.
ReplyDeleteKay of Musings: I’m so glad to hear that you are safe, Olga. It really does feel like Mother Nature is punishing everyone. I know my daughter in Chicago is expecting the heat wave to hit them soon.
