Sep 13th, 2008 - For the last few days there Hurriance Ike has been on the news. The hurricane was expected to hit the state of Texas on Saturday morning. This hurricane was considered to be very strong and many people had been evacuated from the homes in advance of the hurricane hitting the shore. Ike is also expected to hit Dallas but maybe not with a lot of intensty. |
When we woke up this morning, Ike had already hit the lower part of the state and created a lot of damage in Galveston and Houston. The island of Galveston was heavily flooded and many people had lost their homes. In Houston too, many people lost power, their homes and the situation was very bad. We knew that Ike would hit Dallas in the evening and so we went out and got our groceries in the morning. The stores were vey crowded as there were others like us who were also worried that Ike may cause some problems. We bought our groceries and headed back home.
The entire day has been very gloomy and windy but so far there are no signs of strong winds near where we live. Hopefully Ike will not come here. I hope everything gets back to normal for others who have been affected by this hurricane.
