    Geez. I had no idea.
    I heard thunder, then pouring buckets of rain all night.
    I heard there are a lot of people that were evacuated and are staying at Gayle Middle School.

    Does anyone know how we can help?
    I have some room in my house that I could make available for anyone that has been left homeless...
