Day '-2' Shelter plans



Got back from work. My professor thinks the storm won't be too strong when it goes over town. The catch though is that most buildings here weren't built to withstand hurricanes - whatever category. The buildings on campus are stronger (unlike the wooden homes we live in) and i think we should be spending our weekend on campus, huddled in some building.

FYI-

i stay at North Ramparts. All the buildings colored green and blue are buildings on campus. Very close by.

Casa del Sol and French Quarters are the other appartment complexes where many of my friends stay.

For TAMU campus map and key, look at info . You will need adobe acrobat to view them.

Bomb Rita into submission. Does that sound like a stupid idea?

Hurricanes are fuelled by rapidly rising warm surface air up into the colder atmosphere.

It makes sense to HEAT the upper air, perhaps using incendiary bombs or missiles, so that the surface is cooler and the updraft will stop.

Because hurricanes can be hundreds of miles in diameter the target area needs to be chosen wisely.
