Yeah, Mother Nature can be unforgiving.
Inch and a half of rain does not sound like much, until it falls in 10 minutes

22 confirmed dead, 27 still missing in the flooding in Kentucky, and they are crying about a few trees down in the road....

They should have included a shot of a downed white plastic deck chair.
I agree, after what happened in KY, they're showing us a branch and some puddles?

Hey, rain in Vegas is big news, to people in Vegas. No one else cares at all, not even a little.
Kentucky had some bad flooding. But every single year, year after year, there is a city with major flooding. It is really bad news to the people that lost a house or business or a relative. Flooding kills thousands of people globally every single year. Billions in losses from people that build next to a creek or river, or along the coast. It will happen again, every single river has flooded in the past, and will flood again.
