You would hope that no houses would be built in potential flooding zones, but that involves pesky things like ‘regulations’ or ‘caring about other peoples lives’.
The cabins at the camp predated the flood maps, but the owners were explicitly warned and just didn’t want to move them. Nobody made them and now children are dead.
Coming from South Mississippi, it’s up to Alabama as to whenever they decide to open their flood gates as to how many feet of water we get in a flood.
Hurricane Sandy flooded us deeper than Hurricane Katrina. Alabama has proven more than once that they don’t give a shit about us down here.
Flood zone maps are only useful when those pesky humans don’t intervene and open up flood gates and dams and shit. Oh, and humans literally created those things.
A warning like a map of where the most dangerous fast moving flood waters will be? A place where cabins should not be built?
