That was a blessing and good to know. Glad the damage was minimal.
No amount of damage is good news, but it can always be worse.

Our state has just experienced the "fury of water" as you mention and the resulting catastrophic damage.

Something one might expect in a coastal state, but hardly in an inland mountainous state. With the weather changes all over our country, I would think nothing is really predictable anymore.......not even the seasons.
