I suspect that Texans would have welcomed the hurricane....

I expressed this wish with Hurricane Irene and was excoriated by certain Freepers. I guess a few coastal communities were so much more important the the hundreds of communities and homes inland.

You would not be excoriated by me. I’ve never seen anything like this drought in my nearly 60 years. Texas is wasting away. Trees that are decades old are dying. There is NO ground moisture. Wells are drying up and contrary to the belief of some... domestic water supplies even in SE Texas are falling to dangerous levels.

A hurricane is our last chance for water this year. Long range forecasts do not show the winter or next summer as being any better. When the forecasters won’t mention La Nina or El Nino you know neither is changing.

The fire threat is immense. We will lose more property and homes from fire than from hurricane before this is over.
