My husband and I were just talking about the flood. We live on Shadow Mountain Dr., which became a raging river. We think we might see the same extreme in this year's rainy season. Here's to hoping the storm water drainage improvements made by the city wind up working. Thank you for this. Excellent. Peace.
@nightdevil6666 if u really dont like us then go away....stop having issues ur the kind of hater that may end up killing politicians one day...God Bless You and ur family...and God bless this country..
@vansskaterd youve got some issues for not agreeing with him... el paso is trash i would rather live in alamogordo, unfortunatly the army keeps me here so im stuck here with all the borderhoppers people with fake pappers bad driving and fucking car thefts that always seem to go unnoticed. fuck this city fuck the mayor and fuck you
@nightdevil6666 Dude you werent born here , your only here for a short period of time, so stop crying like a little bitch. My god. seriously dude you have issues! I know El Paso is not the best city, god knows iv traveld to better but you know what, i can care less that you hate this city its not news to me. but dont talk shit about the people. Cause after all we are the 2nd safest city in the US.Your psycotic to want all of us to die and the city. Your crazy if you dont think so.
@MellyDos2119 sure hell wasnt borne here but i rtell ya what i fucking lived in the area for most my life and cant seem to get away from this shithole. and yeah safest city big fucking deal that means you are less likley to fuckin die you stupid cunt but frankly us military folk keep getting fucking robbed left and right by these fucking border hopping degenerates and fucking having our vehicles towed to mexico over night? come on fuck you kid and fuck your logic, fucking tell me im not born
@MellyDos2119 haha wow such a cry baby. Ya being one of the safest citys is a big deal.And dont blame el paso for your problems, its mexicos thats out of our hand not el paso. Were just the city they come to so we have no control over what they do. So why dont you take you head out of you ass and open your eyes and stop talking shit to everyone like were idots cause we dont think like you.and fuck my logic cause i said" your not born" i said you werent born here, learn how to read right. lol
@puplepack1234 how can you say this wasn't devastating? Many people lost their homes and cars. Remember the Saipan area? The entire neighborhood had to be demolished. Remember Mesa Hills? The street was closed for almost a year to cover up the massive sink hole. It was completely devastating and our city is still recovering. Do a little research before you write crap on the 'net. I bet you're like 12 with no idea what really went on
@purplepack1234 yeah same thing with me, thank God there is a huge water ditch in front of my house so everything was cool.
BUT i knew a lot of people whose houses were severely damaged due to the flood, broken roofs, broken windows, water 2 feet tall INSIDE the house and well it was pretty messy in some parts of el paso.
Hopefully someday u will see past your own nose and understand other people's suffering. have a great day. God bless :)
wow thats pretty scary! i still remeber when this happend! i had to get out of school because of the flood i was so freaked out! i rmeber they evacuated my school because it started to flood
lol i live right by eastwood high school and we barely got anything. i was still driving around in it looking for something to eat. worst i had to do was drive on the sidewalk for a couple of yards.
Nah, El Paso had military aid, not that they needed it. The worse thing that happened in El Paso was a Blockbuster Video store flooding. I was abajo la fokin frontera en Juarez. I was stuck in my 2nd story apartment on my own for 3 days, luckily i had enough food, beer and pornography. The aftermath was crazy, many stray dogs in the city had drowned and were decomposing in the streets. Anyway, it wasn't exactly a catastrophic event. I'm from northern England and i've seen worse flooding here !
Flood 2006 was a nightmare. Looks like we learned our lesson. No matter how unlikely the chances of flooding is you should always be prepared and make it easy for the water to flow out of the town. Hell we were basically a bowl waiting for the water to fill us up.
damn my gmas house was under construction when about at 1 in tha morning the whole roof collapsed we were up puting and taking buckets full of water till bout 7 in da morning i felt sooo bad for ma grandparents
i know me either my sister told me it was the rain of the century and only happens ever 100 years or soo but luckily my house didnt get much damage and the roof was messed up a bit it sucked good thing its over though oh ya and the rio grand flooded over 12 feet deep!!! lol it was sad to see all those houses ruined and blockbuster and kfc distroyed!! lol i love it here!!
This was a horrible storm where I live. I live in central El Paso, or at least used to, and I was with my step-dad in Las Cruces when we heard on the news about the flood. My mom and my brother were at our house in El Paso, and my mom had to go ot in the storm and dig a ditch litterally through our fence so the water wouldn't get into our house. This strm realy sucked.
Me and my wife where on vacation when this happened. we heard the news of the flooding in Key West florida on their local news. i couldnt believe it. I stopped eating my food to walk up to the t.v. in the resturant.
What if it happen to you...do you know how i felt to know that your home was missing. Or that your belongings are gone. When you know how it feels then you'll understand.
omg i wanted to visit some friends in elpaso last year..they told me to stay in germany..because its dry there ..xD..i couldnt really believe them when they told me about the flooding...but when i see this im glad i went there THIS year..
i remember this but i was in las cruses .... our house was under water. my friend's house is in this video... the one with the blue Nissan,basketball net and the angry old lady
The Flood of '06 I remember it like it was yesterday. I was out there in my little Neon passing stalled cars and then I pulled over and helped people push their vehicles out of traffic on the interstate. Everyone in El Paso knows about monsoon season and yet no one prepares for it.
the after the rain stopped we took a walk on shadow mountain and the damage was... unbelieveable to say the least... did anyone else see the vw beetle that was under the parkinglot?
so then i woke my wife up telling her that she wasnt going to be able to go to work either, so what did we do instead? we did whateveryother mexican would do... we took a walk to see the damage hahahahaha!!!! it was crazy! the blockbuster was broken in half and kids were grabbing any dvd they could get their hands on, we couldnt get off the block exept to go to the 7 11 on caprock/shadowmountain where we bought 2 18 packs and brewed the whole day!!!
yeah man at that time i was living at pretty much ground zero where all the damage took place (caprock/ shadowmountain) i actually lived at the caprock apts. i was getting ready for work and my wife was still sleeping, so i had the news on and they said someshit about it flooding, i was like, whatever, its not fucking flooding, then they showed the dumpster in the middle of mesa street and i was like, oh shit it did flood
yea that day was crazy i was like aww shit today was the day i had to register at community but then i was like i have a big truck lol so i went any ways...
I live in the upper west side, so not much damage here. not like in these photos. This happened right after I moved here. Never seen anything like it, always lived in the desert.
Oh my god. I hadn't even heard EP ever flooded until I saw this video.. I don't know how I could have missed that news. I moved away mid-2005. I knew that it was going to happen someday, I mean, almost every time it rained my car turned into a boat. Wow. Thanks for the coverage.
Global Warming..!?!?!?!?! the man upstairs is talking to all of us..!!!!!!!!!!! the tsunmami and hurricane katrina alot more is coming maybe an EARTHQUAKE dang people what more do you want.???? this is the first time el paso has seen this.... alot more is coming and before you know it... its to late.. REPENT!!!
you guys are so lucky to get heaps of rain. Here in Melbourne Australia we are in a 10 year drougt our water dams are dry. We have to watch our water. So if you dont want it then send the rain our way.
This isn't a disaster. This is something El Paso should have been prepared for. This was the consequences of the "It never rains in El Paso" mindset. There should be some better flood systems right now because this is gonna happen again.
Yeah that storm definitely shut everybody up with the "it never rains in El paso" mentality. Album Park was "Album Lake" for a while and I felt bad for the people who lived on Mowad.
Okay guys...I live in El Paso too, I understrand that it got pretty bad. It was the worse weather El Paso has ever seen but we can all be thankful that we didn't have a disaster like Katrina happen this is nothing and I'm thankful for living here.
WHy the hell all people being so damn ugly about "the beaners getting bad"?? Grow up, you dont even know half of what happened you shelltered liitle mamas boy
Great video! I lost my car durring all that...Sad times, but its good to know we all pulled through and got out of it! Now my backyard has GREEN grass when it was just dirt the week before the flood.
Jimmy bo you are an idiot. I DO live there, and have lived there all my life. and I think hes an idiot for calling them "beaners" you probably lived on the west side too and laughed at all the poor people who lost their homes... yeah you are an idiot
Bigdaddy if you knew El Paso then you would recognize scenes from the West side, South Central and the North East. And there was only one fatality. A young man working the pumps on Doniphan and 375. He was hit by a semi that had lost its brakes. Not too many "rich" people living on Doniphan. City and State crews worked for weeks pumping water and mud down there. The people of El Paso pulled together and we sure didnt miss you.
i'm not sure how long ago it was but a boy drowned while playing near dyer street a few years back from a flash flood. it wasn't on the news for more than 15 seconds. the news likes to take every bit of excitment from el paso and exploit it on the news. how long did they go on about that astronaut?
i just left el paso a year and a few months ago. i lived there for 14 years and its a horrible place. i noticed that now its all over the news about all this flooding but its becuase the richer people are affected by it. we have flooding all the time in the northeast and people die from it all the time but no one cares cuz its the ghetto. but now that someones ferrari got wet its a big deal.
Dude i gotta agree with you, i used to live right off of Dyer street in sherman park and the city never did shit about the flooding. they barely did anything about the west side floods this video was made for.
It's an awesome vid for awareness. I'm in Lc, but we might as well be part of Texas. I love when it rains, it never seems to rain enough here, but just like the songs says" Rain rain go away come again another day at least for El paso."

Yeah that storm definitely shut everybody up with the "it never rains in El paso" mentality. Album Park was "Album Lake" for a while and I felt bad for the people who lived on Mowad.

haha that's funny, Shermon park got it's nickname "Shermon Lake" that month.

1 month left until the start of the monsoon season. Hope El Paso is prepared this year.

Bigdaddy if you knew El Paso then you would recognize scenes from the West side, South Central and the North East. And there was only one fatality. A young man working the pumps on Doniphan and 375. He was hit by a semi that had lost its brakes. Not too many "rich" people living on Doniphan. City and State crews worked for weeks pumping water and mud down there. The people of El Paso pulled together and we sure didnt miss you.

i'm not sure how long ago it was but a boy drowned while playing near dyer street a few years back from a flash flood. it wasn't on the news for more than 15 seconds. the news likes to take every bit of excitment from el paso and exploit it on the news. how long did they go on about that astronaut?
Dustin322 4 years ago
forever, and don't doubt the astronaut. I go to Burges and met him, he was a cool guy.

i just left el paso a year and a few months ago. i lived there for 14 years and its a horrible place. i noticed that now its all over the news about all this flooding but its becuase the richer people are affected by it. we have flooding all the time in the northeast and people die from it all the time but no one cares cuz its the ghetto. but now that someones ferrari got wet its a big deal.
bigdaddy496 5 years ago
Dude i gotta agree with you, i used to live right off of Dyer street in sherman park and the city never did shit about the flooding. they barely did anything about the west side floods this video was made for.

It's an awesome vid for awareness. I'm in Lc, but we might as well be part of Texas. I love when it rains, it never seems to rain enough here, but just like the songs says" Rain rain go away come again another day at least for El paso."
