Pray for the WHOLE area! My sister-in-law lives in Dexter, a small town in the farm area just outside of Roswell. She was paralyzed when she was 10 years old, and is now a senior citizen. There are several rivers that surround the farm communities, so they were also flooded. She was stranded on her bed when the flood waters came. Her neighbor could not make it to her house and could not reach her by phone. She yelled from her home to a rescue crew driving through the flood waters, to check on her. They had to break down the door, but they were able to rescue her. Her home is flooded, but we are grateful to the men who rescued her. 😌
My sister lives in Dexter too, I feel so bad for everyone there. I live in San Antonio, even if we try to go help , she says everything is ruined, she so sad.. Prayers to Dexter!
We just went through the same thing in WNC. We will never recover here… it’s been 3 weeks and people still missing, several deaths, no power, water, cell service. It’s absolutely horrible. No words.
Born and raised in Weaverville, in East Tennessee now but WNC will always be home to me. Been praying so hard for yall! Now adding NM to the list as well! God speed friends 🧡
This has got to stop we know it’s weather modification to kill us off and take the land mess with the election the evil list goes on we must stick together the government is not going to help we must come together and help us each of us can play a part in helping if we don’t then we are done we’re Americans we know how to help others and we know what to do to come back let’s do this now
I’m sorry. I’m on the gulf coast of Florida and understand. When the media leaves people forget about you. But there’s a lot of floridians up there helping wnc right now because they know recovery isn’t over. It will take a long time to rebuild but it’s possible.
Thanks for this. There are those who aren't from the high desert who just don't understand the speed, power and ferocity a flash flood really has. I got lucky as I'm in a higher part of town but was still an inch from being flooded in my home. Watching it unfold last night was scary as hell, I feel for those folks downtown. They have a long road ahead.
We'd get 4 or five inches of rain in a few hours in New Orleans every summer at least once or twice, but we expected it and just pumped it out. And we didn't build on slabs but on piers.
Roswell is pretty flat, in the grand scheme of things, sitting at the bottom of a spillway that starts up by Tucumcari and Santa Rosa. Water's been coursing down that plain for thousands of years. We lived in Corona, Dexter, Roswell, Portales, when I was a kid, in the '50s. I still have a crowd of relatives in Roswell. One of my granddads is buried there.
Thank you so much showing this. Born and raised in Roswell and lived there many many years. I can't believe what has happened. The amount of damage looks horrific. I pray everyone is able to recover. Stay strong. Love to all
I'm here in Roswell, and I'm one lucky man. I knew it was bad (the rain pretty much made our apartment shake) but apparently it was just a glimpse of what really hit. Thanks for sharing this.
I'm a Roswell resident and have lived here for 39 years The amount of rain we got in 6 hours was about half of our annual rainfall. My family and I are not badly affected (luckily), but this was a truly unprecedent storm.
I sw a post and texted a friend about this. NO ONE knew anything because the "news" wasn't saying a WORD! Hmmm .. sound familiar? What's there? NC has Lithium. What does THIS area have? Praying for all of you!!, and whoever is NEXT.
Very well done, thanks for this. We live in Roswell, got lucky that we're on higher ground north of Goddard High. So much loss w/ this flood, going to take a long time to recover from this. Wishing all those that were seriously affected by the storm and the families involved the best through this tragedy. Hats off to the police, fire and EMTs getting to those that needed immediate help, and to those citizens that went way above and beyond to help their community.
We live in Roswell as well and are new to the area. Our home is in the North Washington area. Do you know if everything is okay on that side? I read your comment about being north of Goddard High School. I google map it from our home, and I think we should be okay. Both hubby and I are out of town due to work. He is on his way back to Roswell. I am glad you are safe.
@@alicewonders9291 I'm not sure, we have an elevated lot near the Mission Arch nursing home, and although that area right in front of the nursing home was about 3-4ft deep during that flooding, our home was well above the water.

Foreign affairs and domestic Agencies have totally separate funding. CONGRESS sets the budget for the Federal government. Specifically, the House. The House is currently GOP majority and Speaker Johnson has refused to return before the election to address emergency funding for FEMA after they failed to pass an actual budget for 2025. Speaker Johnson thinks campaigning is more important than helping Americans after a disaster.
Just to let you know, republican house speaker johnson is refusing to vote for additional fema funds. 40 billion dollars has been passed by the senate, democrat majority. Think about that when you vote. Speaker johnson also refused to put up for a vote on the bi partisan border bill written by republican senator lankford from oklahoma. Trump stopped him, saying, " we can't give biden a win"

This is heartbreaking. One peculiar thing about this event is the silence surrounding it. I've not heard anyone report on this anywhere. If it wasn't for your video, I would likely never have known. Sending healing hugs from Tennessee.

It's a semi-arid climate. There are few, if any storm drains. The roads are the storm drains. Roswell sits in the Pecos River valley with several usually dry tributaries running down from the Sacramento Mountains to the west. Whatever rain got dumped on the area rushed down towards the Pecos.
Hi Johnathan. I’m right here in the middle of all this in Roswell, NM It’s good seeing you. Thank you for sharing this. Wow! My downstairs was flooded but not as bad as some people. I live out in the country and haven’t seen the town yet. It’s devastating 🙏🏻
OMG thank you for sharing this news. I lived in Roswell in 1972 and it rained and flooded on our home at 309 E Conner. I'm am praying for you all. Stay strong good people!
I don't know how old you are, but we never, ever put out address on the internets, that's just inviting people to come and harass you. take it down please..thank you
Didn't hear a Word about this on any news. I remember it as a pretty town. Just heartbreaking to see this. My thoughts and prayers are with all who were impacted by this. Since I'm on a small SS check, its all I have to offer. Take care💕💕
I grew up in Roswell and now live near Albuquerque and still have a lot of family in Roswell. Thank you for sharing this. I hope the roads open soon so i can go there and check on family.
I’m in town currently. Lived here my whole life, and my entire property is ruined. Fences knocked over, gates destroyed, several inches of mud. We got hit by the levy break and the water nearly flooded our house but we luckily had our house slightly higher than the water rose. Hell, a Sierra Volunteer truck got stuck and was abandoned right outside my house. Storm threw barbed wire and massive fencing all over the street, so I had to run out there and start moving it so people could get through. I was at Roswell High last night too around when the rain began to get worse (about 7:00) and the water was ankle deep and even seeing the curb was impossible.
@@thefogasm My gosh....I am deeply sorry to hear your property is ruined. ▪️Is the levy break, a Dam? If so, which one? ▪️It's coming out in W NC that the three dams used in or around the W NC mountains were released.....I believe either during or before hurricane I just heard the report recently. My reliance on news is from either people living in affected area or boots on the ground VOLUNTEERS. I hope you are receiving help at least from volunteers. 💟☮️🕉️
So many dam’s and Levi breaks all over the place. The increasing number of the Levee in damn problems let me to ask if we lived anywhere near a damn if it is above us. I am really sorry that this happened. I can’t imagine what you’re going through.
We survived it. Prayers to the family of those who were lost. I was almost swept down my street Trying to get my 4x4 into the driveway and sacrificed that same trucks transmission pulling others to safety. God bless our world and town. So many close to me lost everything. Keep us in your prayers
You did such an amazing job on this and the music you chose made it all the more heart wrenching. The whole video made me cry. Sending love and light and prayers.
I most certainly will be praying for Roswell. Incredible drone footage and citizen journalism. I've heard absolutely nothing about this in Colorado. Our temps have been dropping into the thirties at night and I have been harvesting green beans, tomatoes and peppers in full bloom and production. Grateful but stymied because that is not normal for late October in Colorado. Very bizarre weather conditions for sure. Thank you for getting the word out that Roswell needs help.
Just blown away - this is tragic! I have friends in town bailing out. Spent much of my youth visiting family there in the 70's. Praying for everyone! Stay safe!
Oh no. This is the first I am hearing about this. I pray for miracles, speedy recovery and healing for this wonderful city. I go through Roswell every summer with family and friends. This breaks my heart to see such good people suffer from these devastating moments. 😢
From the NETHERLANDS, i,ve been 10 times in ROSWELL , i,m horrified and schocked to see the damage and devastation caused by the rainstorm, let,s hope the new mexico authorities will take their responsibility and provide money and supplies to help the citizens of ROSWELL, and rebuild the city! Our thoughts are with you , we pray for you!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I live in western Colorado, and this is the first I have heard about the flood in Roswell; it's just hard to imagine the devastation there. My heart goes out to everyone there, and it just makes me sick to witness what we are seeing happen in what have been generally safe places in America. What area will be next? Thank you for your excellent video, and I will share it right now. May God bless you.
I live in Moriarty, New Mexico. We got 3 inches of rain in less than an hour. With hail. I live on a hillside on the prairie. No flooding here at my house. Filled my 2000gl. Tank in an hour!
Ignorance is not a sin until you flaunt it! FEMA does amazing work. Donnie Dingbat is the Face of Evil, the Kiss of Death, a lying rumor-monger who should be in prison, NOT on the "campaign trail:!
Thank you for posting this. They had a very brief mention of the flooding on GMA this morning, but this video shows the true destruction. Praying for everyone in my home town.
Thank you for sharing this report. I only learned about the flood last night. My husband moved to Roswell in 2009 and lived there till his death in 2023. Nothing like that ever happened there.There were some smaller floodings before and the normally dry riverbed would overflow, but this is simply unbelievable. I am in pure shock. My heart goes to everyone in Roswell.
Thank you for sharing. I’m in ABQ and have been here off & on since I was a kid. I’ve only seen flooding a couple times here and nothing like Roswell. That’s crazy post hurricane flooding.
Thank you so much for making this video. Yes, as many have said, so much better than any other reports I’ve seen. I lived in Roswell almost forever and just recently moved. It just breaks my heart for the town. So much destruction, so much beauty destroyed, lives, lost, people losing everything. 💔😭🙏🙏Praying !!!
Little to nothing found in the MSM news about this. I would have no clue here in the Midwest if I hadn't accidentally stumbled across this video while surfing TH-cam.
They're too busy talking about all the crazy shit Trump says to care about a small town in the desert. I heard about it right as it happened in Thunder Bay, Ontario.
Thank you for sharing this quality footage with the world. As a regular visitor, the residents are wonderful and deserve better than what FEMA is going to give them.
FEMA is out of money. I’m in Ruidoso. After the fire here and the hurricanes. I applied for help 5 months ago..the last time I went in they said sorry they changed the rules a couple of days ago. you get nothing. All I asked for was motel money back.. less than $1000 I was evacuated 11 days. 2 nights of those I had to sleep in my car. I’m disabled living on a fixed income. I am blessed my house was saved, by one house beside me and one house behind me on the other side of those is gone. Praying for Roswell 🙏🛐✝️

My husband and I were just there for a racing event on Thursday and Friday. We left out Saturday morning just before the storms hit. I can’t believe all this. That town is so cool and everyone we encountered was amazing and super friendly. It’s heartbreaking to see everything.
Thank you so much for this! My family and I live in Roswell, but I am currently out of state on a business trip. We were one of the lucky ones as my family is all safe and accounted for. Continued prayers as Roswell rebuilds. 🫶🏼
I pray for all the people that have been affected by this flood. My heart goes out to each and every one of you. I used to live there many, many years ago. My son was born there my ex. Husband lives there and I had to call yesterday to make sure that he was safe. This broughttears to my eyes
This breaks my heart. We shop in Roswell, little over 100 miles away. Our son went to NMMI for high school. NMMI has extensive tunneling system under it, I wonder how it all fared. We had planned to go to Sam's Saturday morning but had other stuff to do so moved it to Sunday. Just hard to wrap our minds around it. Our prayers are with our Roswell neighbors. Love from Clovis.
It's not biblical at all. This is a natural cycle for the area and people simply don't take into account these cycles when they build up these areas. It's human ignorance, not God, that did this. It's also probably not a good idea to attribute things to him when you have 0 proof he had a hand in it. He'll let us know when it's his hand involved.
@@sophiaelayne9984 biblical in a descriptive sense maybe, but these storms are not "natural" occurrences. "They" have weaponized the weather against us, it's not just here in the states, please get educated.
Just subscribed, the way you shot this coupled with familiarity you have with Roswell made this a very well made piece. So unfortunate the subject matter though. Thanks
I'm in Augusta, weeks after Helene without power, trees on every other house... I know people living in tents. If you're waiting on FEMA good luck. They did send an application for an SBA loan...
I was wondering what happened to Georgia as I knew South Carolina was bad with trees down and power outages. I could not find much information on Georgia but I could see your power was out for a while. I am in Maine we had a strange windstorm that knocked some power poles down
@@tracykimber729 Wow... Hurricane Helene took us out, trees on 1 in 3 houses, people walking down the middle of the street with signs saying "need water", mile long lines for gas until it ran out, 24/7 sirens... It wasn't in the news?
This is one of the best videos of the event. I was in the flying saucer McDonald's when the manager called the employees and told everyone to leave the building. I thought this was a bad move. The employees and the people in the McDonald's had to spend the night in the parking lot. I was there from 10:00 pm to 7:00 am. I think we would have been safer inside the building.
My neighbours to the north in Vancouver, BC, received eight inches of rain over the weekend. These rain bombs are happening globally with regularity. Tipping points have been reached. This is just the beginning.
Friday night we were coming from Bloomfield, there was lightning coming from the north to the east side of New Mexico. Pray for my neighbors in Roswell
I drove through this storm Saturday around 5pm just outside of Roswell before it hit, I actually stopped and ate at the Applebee's shown 32 seconds into the video, I have never driven through rain like that, it fully blanked the road way and you could not see, I had to look through my drivers window and follow the edge of the interstate, I drive a lifted duramax and dont shy from bad weather but this storm had me white knuckled the whole time, my heart goes out to the residents of Roswell and those impacted by this, what trips me out is I had my GPS running the hole time and not once did I get a weather notification, coincidence I think not, so im sure Roswell had no idea what was coming its way and how bad it was.
I know Roswell very well; I still have family there, and my parents lived there for 10 years. It's disturbing and very sad to see this unique city in such condition. I keep my positive thoughts on the people of Roswell.
Here is an "event" thatt that happens daily. It is the very common thing we call it Sunrise. Here is another, happens both day and night during every month: full moon. The 100; 1000 and other more random events are less likely to occur sequentially. Do not be afraid.
Looks so familiar....I was living in Carlsbad in 1968 and in one summer afternoon, there was 8 inches of rain and high winds....The flooding was terrible and the winds were so high, it took down the TV tower (KAVE TV) west of town on C Hill....positive thoughts for all the people of Roswell.....//
We moved back to Indiana from Charleston SC in 2017 because we started getting the 1000 year floods every year. Now Indiana is starting to get extreme weather. I think we might be past the point of no return.
I am from Amarillo and moved to Ark. I have been in Sante fa and Roswell all over that area so sad. Unreal footage!!!! This is unreal. Roswell was such a fun place to go see the history. I am in prayer from hearing the news but now....I see footage I have never seen.
Why is this the first thing i see about devastating floods in new mexico? I honestly have not seen a single news report about this.
Not sure; it happens like every year somewhere in NM.
same!
Because Southern NM, Roswell is hated by governor Douchebag in Santa Fe.
That’s the liberal news media
@@jamesweiss459 Probably not.
Pray for the WHOLE area! My sister-in-law lives in Dexter, a small town in the farm area just outside of Roswell. She was paralyzed when she was 10 years old, and is now a senior citizen.

▪️It's coming out in W NC that the three dams used in or around the W NC mountains were released.....I believe either during or before hurricane
I just heard the report recently. My reliance on news is from either people living in affected area or boots on the ground VOLUNTEERS.
I hope you are receiving help at least from volunteers. 💟☮️🕉️
@@thefogasm we drove by there last night and saw the volunteer fire rig abandoned in the ditch. Y'all's place looked like an island on a lake.
So many dam’s and Levi breaks all over the place. The increasing number of the Levee in damn problems let me to ask if we lived anywhere near a damn if it is above us. I am really sorry that this happened. I can’t imagine what you’re going through.
@@alicewonders9291 The twin dams on second street to the college broke, thank you so much.
We survived it. Prayers to the family of those who were lost. I was almost swept down my street Trying to get my 4x4 into the driveway and sacrificed that same trucks transmission pulling others to safety. God bless our world and town. So many close to me lost everything. Keep us in your prayers
You are a hero.
My uncle got swept up by the current and sadly didn't survive. It wasn't the kind of news we expected to hear waking up this morning.
I’m so sorry for your loss…
I'm so sorry for your loss. You and your family will be in my prayers.
Praying for you and your family.
🙏

You did such an amazing job on this and the music you chose made it all the more heart wrenching. The whole video made me cry. Sending love and light and prayers.
I most certainly will be praying for Roswell. Incredible drone footage and citizen journalism. I've heard absolutely nothing about this in Colorado. Our temps have been dropping into the thirties at night and I have been harvesting green beans, tomatoes and peppers in full bloom and production. Grateful but stymied because that is not normal for late October in Colorado. Very bizarre weather conditions for sure. Thank you for getting the word out that Roswell needs help.
This is devastating, in every sense of the word. I live on the western side of the state. We had rain, but nothing like this. Praying for Roswell. 🙏
Just blown away - this is tragic! I have friends in town bailing out. Spent much of my youth visiting family there in the 70's. Praying for everyone! Stay safe!
Thank you so for making this video. You really showed the devastation and the need for prayers and aid in the area. Thank you again.
Oh no. This is the first I am hearing about this. I pray for miracles, speedy recovery and healing for this wonderful city. I go through Roswell every summer with family and friends. This breaks my heart to see such good people suffer from these devastating moments. 😢
From the NETHERLANDS, i,ve been 10 times in ROSWELL , i,m horrified and schocked to see the damage and devastation caused by the rainstorm, let,s hope the new mexico authorities will take their responsibility and provide money and supplies to help the citizens of ROSWELL, and rebuild the city! Our thoughts are with you , we pray for you!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I live in western Colorado, and this is the first I have heard about the flood in Roswell; it's just hard to imagine the devastation there. My heart goes out to everyone there, and it just makes me sick to witness what we are seeing happen in what have been generally safe places in America. What area will be next? Thank you for your excellent video, and I will share it right now. May God bless you.
I live in Moriarty, New Mexico. We got 3 inches of rain in less than an hour. With hail. I live on a hillside on the prairie. No flooding here at my house. Filled my 2000gl. Tank in an hour!
Same. I live in Indian Hills.
It was nuts
Prayers from NC. Don't count on FEMA. Communities have to work together if you want to live. 🙏❤️✌️🇺🇲🌎
Thoughts and prayers are so much self-serving bullsh*t.
Ignorance is not a sin until you flaunt it! FEMA does amazing work. Donnie Dingbat is the Face of Evil, the Kiss of Death, a lying rumor-monger who should be in prison, NOT on the "campaign trail:!
@@wesstubbs3472May be self-serving, but people need the support. Prayers are one way to find strength.
Thank you for documenting my city ❤ Roswell strong!
Prayers for healing Amen 🙏
Thank you for posting this. They had a very brief mention of the flooding on GMA this morning, but this video shows the true destruction. Praying for everyone in my home town.
Thank you for your video. I have seen nothing on the news how severe the damage was.
Prayers from Texas Panhandle.
Thank you for sharing this report. I only learned about the flood last night. My husband moved to Roswell in 2009 and lived there till his death in 2023. Nothing like that ever happened there.There were some smaller floodings before and the normally dry riverbed would overflow, but this is simply unbelievable. I am in pure shock. My heart goes to everyone in Roswell.
Thank you for sharing. I have driven through and stopped there hundreds of times from Odessa. My heart breaks for your city.
Thank you for sharing. I’m in ABQ and have been here off & on since I was a kid. I’ve only seen flooding a couple times here and nothing like Roswell. That’s crazy post hurricane flooding.
Thank you for sharing this Jonathan.
Thank you so much for making this video. Yes, as many have said, so much better than any other reports I’ve seen. I lived in Roswell almost forever and just recently moved. It just breaks my heart for the town. So much destruction, so much beauty destroyed, lives, lost, people losing everything. 💔😭🙏🙏Praying !!!
Little to nothing found in the MSM news about this. I would have no clue here in the Midwest if I hadn't accidentally stumbled across this video while surfing TH-cam.
They're too busy talking about all the crazy shit Trump says to care about a small town in the desert. I heard about it right as it happened in Thunder Bay, Ontario.
Praying for all! 🙏 Your coverage is remarkable. I heard it was terrible, but to actually see the damage is heart wrenching.
Thank you for sharing this quality footage with the world. As a regular visitor, the residents are wonderful and deserve better than what FEMA is going to give them.
Well done, respectfully documented-thank you! I live in northern New Mexico and it’s sad to see such devastation.
FEMA is out of money. I’m in Ruidoso. After the fire here and the hurricanes. I applied for help 5 months ago..the last time I went in they said sorry they changed the rules a couple of days ago. you get nothing. All I asked for was motel money back.. less than $1000 I was evacuated 11 days. 2 nights of those I had to sleep in my car. I’m disabled living on a fixed income. I am blessed my house was saved, by one house beside me and one house behind me on the other side of those is gone. Praying for Roswell 🙏🛐✝️
@brooks5466 all the while we send billions to other countries 🙄
@@ozarksrealtor IM HERE TO SHUT BUBBLE GUN it's bussines that's all it is there is not countries anymore no more good guys they're running the whole SHOW they own everything the whole goddam PLAN-ET they can do where ever they want let's make some $$$ you can have a litte taste that good live too TRAITOR you are doing it to your own kind THEY LIVE 1988
You can thank the Republicans for that
FEMA is out of money sending it all to illegals via the SHELTER AND SERVICES PROGRAM. Read it on their websites they describe it as 'migrants'
@@filipegrieb-dunlap5625 YOU SHOULD BE A BOT OR ANOTHER DAM RETARD THERE ARE STILL A BUNCH OF ZOMBIS AS THIS GUY 🤣🤣🤣
Excellent coverage. I appreciate your compassion and concern. Thank you.
The legend returns to CTR.
Stay safe out there brother!
Thank you for getting the wors out about this terrible disaster. We will be prayer for you. I am sorry this happened to you. ❤
Thats crazy, right here in our backyard. Thx for sharing
My husband and I were just there for a racing event on Thursday and Friday. We left out Saturday morning just before the storms hit. I can’t believe all this. That town is so cool and everyone we encountered was amazing and super friendly. It’s heartbreaking to see everything.
Thank you, praying here in Rio Rancho, hope people are taking lessons... it could happen to anyone.
Wow! Went to school there. Never even imagined a flood happening. Prayers for all.
My God! What is going on in this world. So much devastation!
Judgement???😂
At least that’s what it looks like the apocalypse ..
Just their age-old 25 point plan coming to fruition - xpect more, Much more💔
@mellodeed8550 birth pangs and they will only get worse.

Thank you very much for making this video. You gave great coverage of what happened there. I know that area well. Glad you are safe!
Prayers comin from Carlsbad, NM
Thank you for making and sharing this video!!
God bless all the people. Godspeed help and blessings! First responders stay safe. 🙏
Thank you so much for this! My family and I live in Roswell, but I am currently out of state on a business trip. We were one of the lucky ones as my family is all safe and accounted for. Continued prayers as Roswell rebuilds. 🫶🏼
@erinadler6522 i was a cop here for 11 years and left to Arkansas. Came back for a hunt and here we are...
@@ozarksrealtorhow is the water gone already from many of these areas? Several feet of water already drained… didn’t this happen just hours ago?
I live in El Paso and we didn't get any news of this till our eve news!
My heart goes out to all the people that live in. Roswell, New Mexico, and that were truly affected.
I pray for all the people that have been affected by this flood. My heart goes out to each and every one of you. I used to live there many, many years ago. My son was born there my ex. Husband lives there and I had to call yesterday to make sure that he was safe. This broughttears to my eyes
This breaks my heart. We shop in Roswell, little over 100 miles away. Our son went to NMMI for high school. NMMI has extensive tunneling system under it, I wonder how it all fared. We had planned to go to Sam's Saturday morning but had other stuff to do so moved it to Sunday. Just hard to wrap our minds around it. Our prayers are with our Roswell neighbors. Love from Clovis.
Prayers to all my family and friends in Roswell. 💔💗 thanks to all of the brave first responders out there keeping everyone safe.
WOW! Thank you for the video. Prayers to all those affected by this tragedy.
This is Biblical. God bless the people who are going through this all over the country.
It's not biblical at all. This is a natural cycle for the area and people simply don't take into account these cycles when they build up these areas. It's human ignorance, not God, that did this. It's also probably not a good idea to attribute things to him when you have 0 proof he had a hand in it. He'll let us know when it's his hand involved.
@@zarroth Read your Bible. This is indeed Biblical.
@@sophiaelayne9984💯🎯
I see a pattern here. Weather warfare 😞☁️ the evil WEF depopulation plan
@@sophiaelayne9984 biblical in a descriptive sense maybe, but these storms are not "natural" occurrences. "They" have weaponized the weather against us, it's not just here in the states, please get educated.
Thank you for sharing, prayers being lifted from Arkansas.
Just subscribed, the way you shot this coupled with familiarity you have with Roswell made this a very well made piece. So unfortunate the subject matter though. Thanks
Thank you. Have family in Roswell. Been coming to Roswell since late 1960s
I'm in Augusta, weeks after Helene without power, trees on every other house... I know people living in tents. If you're waiting on FEMA good luck.
They did send an application for an SBA loan...
I was wondering what happened to Georgia as I knew South Carolina was bad with trees down and power outages. I could not find much information on Georgia but I could see your power was out for a while. I am in Maine we had a strange windstorm that knocked some power poles down
@@tracykimber729 Wow... Hurricane Helene took us out, trees on 1 in 3 houses, people walking down the middle of the street with signs saying "need water", mile long lines for gas until it ran out, 24/7 sirens... It wasn't in the news?
That is crazy that is a lot of rain. Great reporting.
Thank you for sharing this
Thank you for this report. So utterly heart wrenching. Prayers and angles for all involved. What is happening in America, and our world.
Blessings!
Thank you for sharing ❤ 🙏
yeah your report on this storm was good thanks............
Nothing in the MSM about this. Not a peep. That seem odd to anyone else? Thanks for the report. Praying for all who are suffering.
False.
It's been all over print media, I saw it on the weather channel this morning.
Nope nothing
@@WeThePeople001 - Must not be looking, then.
@BeakyFloof that's just it, shouldn't have to search for it.
Love and Light from Canada 🇨🇦 ❤
We got 10" in one night in Jan 2023 and are still awaiting road and storm drain repair over a year later. Take care, NM.
Connecticut and Long Island also had delays. It’s getting a little crazy as nothing is getting fixed.
This is one of the best videos of the event. I was in the flying saucer McDonald's when the manager called the employees and told everyone to leave the building. I thought this was a bad move. The employees and the people in the McDonald's had to spend the night in the parking lot. I was there from 10:00 pm to 7:00 am. I think we would have been safer inside the building.
My neighbours to the north in Vancouver, BC, received eight inches of rain over the weekend. These rain bombs are happening globally with regularity. Tipping points have been reached. This is just the beginning.
Utterly devastating.😢😭 Praying for everyone. 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼 Thank you for your coverage.
Friday night we were coming from Bloomfield, there was lightning coming from the north to the east side of New Mexico. Pray for my neighbors in Roswell
I drove through this storm Saturday around 5pm just outside of Roswell before it hit, I actually stopped and ate at the Applebee's shown 32 seconds into the video, I have never driven through rain like that, it fully blanked the road way and you could not see, I had to look through my drivers window and follow the edge of the interstate, I drive a lifted duramax and dont shy from bad weather but this storm had me white knuckled the whole time, my heart goes out to the residents of Roswell and those impacted by this, what trips me out is I had my GPS running the hole time and not once did I get a weather notification, coincidence I think not, so im sure Roswell had no idea what was coming its way and how bad it was.
😢OMGOSH, PRAYERS AND LOVE. FOR ALL❤
Thanks for sharing.....this is the most info I have heard on news.
Prays💟☮️🕉️
I know Roswell very well; I still have family there, and my parents lived there for 10 years. It's disturbing and very sad to see this unique city in such condition.
I keep my positive thoughts on the people of Roswell.
Praying for all that has been infected by the flooding.Praying for my family in Roswell,God Bless everyone.Hugs and much love to all.
Seems like these 100 or 1000 year events are happening every week.
Here is an "event" thatt that happens daily. It is the very common thing we call it Sunrise. Here is another, happens both day and night during every month: full moon.
The 100; 1000 and other more random events are less likely to occur sequentially. Do not be afraid.
@@glennfoster2423 Hahaha, I bet you're the funniest kid in your kindergarten! LOL!
Prayers for Roswell and EVERYONE who lives in the area❤
Thank you for sharing
Incredible thank you for the video 🙏🙏🙏
Looks so familiar....I was living in Carlsbad in 1968 and in one summer afternoon, there was 8 inches of rain and high winds....The flooding was terrible and the winds were so high, it took down the TV tower (KAVE TV) west of town on C Hill....positive thoughts for all the people of Roswell.....//
We moved back to Indiana from Charleston SC in 2017 because we started getting the 1000 year floods every year. Now Indiana is starting to get extreme weather. I think we might be past the point of no return.
Praying for Roswell, NM community.
I am from Amarillo and moved to Ark. I have been in Sante fa and Roswell all over that area so sad. Unreal footage!!!! This is unreal. Roswell was such a fun place to go see the history. I am in prayer from hearing the news but now....I see footage I have never seen.
