We were stopped in Virginia for the night on our way back from Ida. Was having dinner. About 730 we got the call about the tornado in Mullica. We immediately got reactivated and had to leave. Soon as we hit the Delaware bridge we were told we werent needed there. One of our recon teams was there. Locals had it covered. About an hour later on our way back to home base, started getting the notifications about the counties along the Delaware. We shot up to Somerset with our water rescue units and started pulling people out of cars and houses. Spent the last two days and nights in Somerset , Hunderton and sent a crew to Elizabeth for flooding and multiple collapses. Was a bunch of bodies pulled out of vehicles and houses
Never seen anything like it up in our area. Flooding was worse than hurricane Sandy. They are predicting a few of the rivers to over-crest tonight with more severe flooding. Still some people missing. Not good.
