So - why leave busses in low-lying areas? Not enough high ground to move them to? Or is it more convenient to just take the insurance payoff on them?
But back to the flood itself - oh the joys of building in a floodplain... The same river that has given so much will, from time to time, take back.
Will this be a repeat of N’Awlins and Katrina?
In this case, it is a private company who owns and runs the buses. They park some pretty decrepit buses in that old car dealership - a victim of the Government Motors takeover. The Wolf River, which is what flooded this area has not been known to do so at that spot in a flash flood and the water came up all at once in a three day storm.
