i think the biggest thing is going to be apathy and the fact it s been over 12 years since we had a major hurricane hit the united states. i think when you think with the numbers of people that have moved in into that area that never experienced a hurricane and maybe went through tropical storm alison and saw the storm further to the west people in houston may not pay much attention. this is what i suggestion we focus on. when the national weather service starts using the word catastrophic rainfall of 35 inches, 40, 45 inches on ground that s already saturated. that s when have you the serious flooding we had in 2001 which started with hurricane alison hitting landfall, turning into a tropical storm and causing some of the greatest damage in american history by any natural disaster, tropical storm alison. it s the complacency and the
reminder of what a tropical storm can do. folks in texas, remember, tropical storm alison back in 2001? that was a tropical storm, it brought 40 inches of rain, it killed 41 people, and left over 70,000 people with flooding in their homes. that s just a tropical storm. so it just gives you a good reminder, it doesn t take a hurricane to cause major damage. and this, of course, is video that we had on happening now yesterday in arlington, texas, that is between dallas and fort worth, where they got pounded with rain, in some cases, we have reports of rainfall amounts of over 15 inches, and then, of course, this is tornado damage, this is also related to the remnants of hermine, out of around the dallas- fort worth area as those tornadoes moved through the area yesterday afternoon. let s take a look at the radar of dallas. late afternoon into the early evening, when we got reports of those tornadoes is this not working?
