This is incredibly devastating, and reminds me of Eastern NC after Hurricane Floyd. People who never thought a natural disaster would happen to them. So scary and sad.
About the bridges and road work that will be needed: sometimes, mother nature requires us to invest in infrastructure improvements. Hope that they will make them assuming weather like this is the new normal. (As compared to what they do to NC 12 in the OBX, which tends to get rebuilt every year after hurricane season....doing the same thing and expecting a different result? Yes, many of us know what that means....)
