[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Asheville and its surroundings are geographically different from the DC area and pretty distinct from most other places, as far as I understand. It was the perfect storm (no pun intended) of a 1,000 year event, in an area that is essentially a shallow bowl surrounded by higher elevations with runoff, also surrounded by TWO major rivers and countless creeks, in a geographically remote (relatively) location with fewer resources/harder to travel roads/where it is harder to store and disseminate supplies. I mean, catastrophic rare events can impact anyone, but the exact combination of what affected Asheville is not likely to affect DC. Take your pick or what could, including flooding, but not in that formula. [/quote] Thanks PP for this explanation. Makes sense. [/quote]
