On the serious side, I do know what you are going through. We in the Gulf Coast region of Texas have had a few, and though they were not like what you have had, they were enough to let us know what those storms are all about. They weren't? Maybe I was living somewhere else than Houston as a kid during Carla and Camille. I know I was home from college north of Manvel when tropical storm Claudette dumped the US record for rainfall on top of my house - 43 inches in 24 hours. The 1900 hurricane that hit Galveston is still the largest loss of life from natural disaster in American history (http://www.1900storm.com/). Next time you stand on that seawall remember you're standing on the unmarked graves of hundreds of people. KeS Sorry. I should have said "recently." All I remember from Carla was the noise and my parents playing pinochle with my grandparents with kerosene lamps lit up everywhere. Claudette did come through here and did do some damage (I was without power for four days), but the rain here in Victoria wasn't much. Florida does seem to be getting, overall more of a pummeling from those storms than Texas, lately, though. Stock up on potted meat and canned green veggies, lol. |
