Harvey The Menace

Do you always hear the words "Houston, We have a problem!"

Well, Houston, Texas has a huge problem since Harvey the hurricane had a landfall in Houston. From 140 to 150 km/hr wind speed had hit the state of Texas causing so much havoc, wreckage,  a calamity they never expected and if you are watching the news network of the massive flood all over their urban city and look at the mess of such disaster is totally, totally unbelievable but that's what it is... you can only just look, stare at the mess, the high water, wading through flood water. People walking on water, small boats on the roads and streets, flood inside the houses, apartments and buildings. Boats sinking and cars, trucks stuck on flood water.

Before Harvey the hurricane was reported before the landfall, the people already had panic buying so food wont be a problem for those people in Houston and by looking at how rich those people there that kind of calamity is not that a huge problem. But according to the news the flood had several people dead from drowning? I don't know, you really have to watch the news on TV for further details.

Just pray for their immediate and safe recovery of this kind of mess of epic proportion. On search and rescue? You know that Texas is a very wealthy state of the United States and they have the necessary emergency response team and probably they have the military who are working hard to do their jobs.

Viewing the videos and news photos of such disaster in Houston can't help compare the flood that ravaged Edmonton and Calgary years ago. That it's hard to believe that an urban community can end up in such massive flood and the flood waters can stay for as long as many days on that particular place.
