Common Dreams reports
A Maryland city was devastated [May 27] after 6-inches of heavy rain caused a downtown flash flood. Major damage is reported and many cars have been swept away.
Ellicott City was still recovering from a flash flood two years ago that killed two and forced the historic city to rebuild much of its Main Street. Residents said Sunday's flood seemed even worse than the storm in July 2016--which was called an extremely rare "one-in-1,000 year event", and cost the city tens of millions of dollars in damages.

yeah, the "news" showed feet of water rushing down main street. that water didn't just come from some light rain shower. something goddamn overflowed. why the presstitutes don't bother mentioning what all the fat leaches in various bureaucracies have been doing all this time or where these damn yankees built their stupid town is beyond me. if you depend on leaches to protect you from flood waters, then you get flooded and the news will lie about it like it's Gaia mad at your carbon footprint.
