They’ve gotten dozens of “life threatening flood” warnings?  Over how long a period of time?

Do they just ignore them?  Have they always just ignored them?

You would think that they'd take that as some sort of sign, particularly being religious adjacent and so forth.

Something something "But I sent you two boats and a helicopter" something...

Jerry Clower, my favorite comedian of all time (along with Richard Pryor and Norm MacDonald) did the best version of that bit, and I think it was because as a devout Christian he took Christ’s gospel more seriously than his own blind spots and social pressure and talked about Godliness even in jest he did it like a preacher.
So when he did that bit he was very clearly castigating the ignorance and shortsightedness of a large part of own audience. And they knew it, and he knew they knew it. 

by the way, you can develop a fair impression of Jerry Clower by mastering the following phrases:

”Newgene Ledbetter”

”Marcel”

“Liberty, Mississippi”

”projected, and predicted”

”AAAAGH, this things killin’ me!”

”Super-dyna-whoppin’, mo-jo-doola, whim-diddley hotel”
