Pittsburgh knows its way around a natural disaster — snow and ice, tornadoes, landslides, sinkholes, and even the outer rings of hurricanes. But our No. 1 most frequent disaster? Flooding. And you don’t need to live near a body of water to be at risk. We’re with Penn State’s Ben Reppert, a lecturer on meteorology and emergency management, to talk about what’s at stake and whether any of us are really prepared.
