I heard two reports where they were telling these people to mark their name on their body . . . to expedite identification in the "clean-up".
Fox interviewed a moron store owner. He said he was staying, because Ritia didn't pan out. By the time they interviewed him by phone, he was screwed. The streets were flooded and the bridge was flooded. I hope he survives.
