The approaching category one hurricane Dolly could bring much need rain to areas in the Texas Gulf coast. But it could also cause massive flooding and levees could fail in this storm.
Dolly is about 130 miles southeast of Brownsville, and could make landfall there- or in Corpus Christi Wednesday. Dolly became a hurricane today, with sustained winds- thus far- at 75 miles per hour. already many residents are evacuating the areas affected.
A bit of good news in all of this, Dolly did miss the oil derricks out in the Gulf, so our gas prices may- or may not- drop.
But no matter the category, this is still a dangerous storm, so I'm interested in how much damage will result in Dolly's aftermath.
