Man. Is Fremont cursed? Seems like they’re always in the news for a horrible weather event, or flood.

They are possibly on the scene. It hasn't been confirmed by whoever confirms these things yet.

"They" are putting in work today in reporting the possible news!

Terrible situation. Prayers for the families that didn't have someone come home.
