Just as we start learning more about hurricanes like Katrina which happened in 2007, another one hits the United States and its' name is Sandy (Left). The two storms have a lot of simularities. they both have flooded the areas that they hit leaving nasty water within buildings and the streets. Hurricane Sandy has done some serious damage to New Yorks subway system, flooding it severly (Right). This time, red cross was able to help out a decent amount of victoms that needed it. This Storm has brought water up for over a mile in some places, stunning residents. The storm has also brought snow to areas all over the East Coast. New Jersey has some sever flooding, it has sank rollercoasters and eye witnesses have reported sharks in the flooded water. To me, that is a very scary thought, imagine, you go onto your doorstep to look into the river infront that was just a week ago, a street, to see a sharks fin flying through the water. Hopefully the coast guard will start draining the cities so those people can go back to their daily lives.
Austin, the reaserch you did was very detailed. I like how you put your own emotion there at the end of your post. I'm pretty sure I would be climbing to the roof if I saw a shark outside my door! I do not care to be eaten :)
ReplyDeleteHopefully we as a nation begin to take more precautionary steps to prevent as much damage to our cities as we can. Good post!
