Thought the fabric was all safe. I had all of it in plastic containers. We have lived here 37 years and never had anything but we awoke to our neighbor pounding on our door at 4 in the morning. Their basement wall, actually 2 of them had collapsed. From what the contractor said today,if one more concrete block would have fell in, the house would have followed. Our house looked like we were in the middle of a lake. We had about 52 inches of water in the basement.Thankfully we didn't have any structual damage. What caused it all was 6 inches of rain in just a few hours. There wasn't anywhere for it to go.
