We are those "people"...#8-) We were 65 miles north east of the eye of the
huricane which put us smack dab in the dangerous semicircle. This huricane
was a Catagory 4 but it was very tightly wound so true huricane force winds
only extended about 50 miles from the center. The worst hit towns were
very sparsly populated, in ranch country. Had this storm continued
straight north and hit metropolitan Corpus Christi the damage would have
been terrible.
