2010 Floods: Aerials Show Drastic Situation

While most had heard reports of the severity of the 2010 floods – from friends, family, and early media reports – the true devastation to the area was captured on video. Particularly, the images captured from high above the flooding showed the worst of the damage.

The Warwick Mall, and it's parking lots completely underwater, the tops of left-behind cars barely visible above the floodwater.

Roadways underwater and backyards made into lakes; the aerial pictures made us all understand how severe the situation was.
