We welcomed the new school year to another hurricane season.The picture above is Hurricane Gustav and tropical storm Hannah.
To the right is a picture of hurricane Gustav barreling down on the Florida coast and headed into the Gulf of Mexico. Right now it is a catorgy 3 hurricane and predictions are that it could reach a catagory 5 by the middle of the Gulf.
We at Ridgway have been doing some sleuthing into why we have to be concerned about hurricanes and Three Rivers Christian does not. Is it in the air? In the water? Is it all about latitudes and longitudes, mountains and valleys?
We would like Three Rivers to do some sleuthing of their own. Why do we worry about Hurricanes and you about Tsunamis? Why is it we have so many hurricanes at this time of the year and you rarely see any during your peak time? Why does your season start in May and ours in September? Why is it the hurricanes almost always 'turn' north and east when heading through the gulf, pummeting poor New Orleans? Why is it that the hurricane always weakens once it hits land? Definitely a series of mysteries for you to solve! Let us know what you find out!
