People who keep saying that Appalachia should’ve been prepared for this really know nothing about the area or weather. This wasn’t a “once in a lifetime” thing. This was a “this has never happened since Noah” kind of thing. It’s one thing to live below sea level and have this happen, it’s a whole other to literally live in the mountains and have your home wash away or have water covering your house. People had less than a days warning of how bad it might be and nothing said it would be this bad. On the coast people know a week ahead what will likely happen because it happens all the time. It’s not the same.
