Gallia County Floods Leave Devastation | Charleston News

Gallia County braced for disaster as historic flooding hit Thursday, September 10th, with up to eight inches of rain falling in some areas — a once-in-a-lifetime event that left homes damaged and drivers stranded. Water rose so fast it caught everyone off guard, even forcing school officials to cancel classes after roads turned into rivers. Emergency crews confirmed this was the worst flooding in the county’s history, reaching places never before touched by water. Now, recovery is underway: road crews are repairing damage, and cleanup supplies will be distributed Monday at 11 AM near the Gallia County EMS station. A local church is also stepping in to support residents affected by the storm. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
