It is really upsetting what happened to New Hampshire and other parts of New England with all of the rain and flooding. Hopefully it won't take to long to recover.

Yeah it was pretty bad. I dont think people were expecting it to be that bad. Obviously its not on the same scale as NO but its bad for anyone to lose thier home no matter what natural disaster you were in. Condolenses for all those people out there.
