My thoughts are with all those who are impacted by this natural disaster. Everyone needs to stay safe and seek higher ground if necessary. If you’re in a position to help, please consider supporting relief efforts or offering assistance to those in need. Let’s come together to support where we can," his wrote in the post.

Warner also shared a video of the destruction caused by heavy rainfall and the rescue effort in the process. Fishing boats and farm tractors are used to pull off the rescue in the video.
