00:39hospital racing against time to move patients.

00:51The water was incredible.
00:52It was Armageddon.
00:55The flooding's now receded, but it's left a mess.

01:03of emergency funding.
01:06The losses are unimaginable for the city.

01:11It looks like an apocalypse.
01:14And the flooding continues to spread.
