I remember all too well living in South Texas and knowing Hurricane Emily was headed toward my home. It was unsettling to know there was nothing you could do but just wait out the storm and hope it would not destroy your home and damage your belongings. Right now, Hurricane Dean is churning in the Atlantic and heading toward South Texas. The most recent advisory from the National Hurricane Center tracks Dean into Northern Mexico. There is only a chance, right now, Dean will brush the Valley.
After watching Super Comet: After the Impact, I felt in the same situation as a hurricane. The show explores the catastrophe a comet would cause if it hit earth. I’m not going to get into all of the depressing situations but it wouldn’t be pretty. If it would happen you’d be in the same situation as a hurricane. You know it’s coming and there’s nothing you can do but just sit in fear.
Let’s just all hope and pray the comet never hits and that Hurricane Dean hits as a weak storm in a sparcely populated area.
