WVa flooding got my TH

Extensive flooding in WVa has us to where we can't get within 10 miles of our TH. We were in Beckley visiting my brother and we got word River was rising 2 to 3 feet an hour. We were 45 mins away from our camper and torrential downpours shut roads down to where we couldn't get to the TH to move it.. Long story short, don't even know if it's on our pad, or washed away... I KNOW it's under water to some extent... I called insurance comany and hope River drops low enough to be able to assess the damage and take pictures for insurance purposes. Rough night for the wife and I . We don't exactly know what to do... Oh, sons camper was also on our lot... Don't know it's condition either.

One never knows what is going to happen. Guess we're now without a camper...between me recouping from the stroke and wife from hip replacement.. This is just about a knock out blow... Don't know what we're going to do at this time.....

  • We are so sorry Jim and family. Stay calm and not make more health issues. Easy for me to said but last summer we had fire issues very close to our home but the wind changed at midnight.

    I know alot of us don't even have flood insurance. Just something that is rare when it happens...

    Good luck my friend...

    I know with us when things go like this there seems to always be a silver lining in it somehow... Keep up the good spirits...

  • I saw the flooding on the news this morning. Sorry to hear you were one of the victims. But, as you know, it could have been much worse.
    I hope everything works out well for you.
