I live in Texas, close to Houston, and have noticed over the years, that Hurricanes that threaten the EAST COAST get a lot more attention than Hurricanes that threaten the GULF COAST get far less attention.
Now, I dont mean to make lite of anyone that has ever been affected by a Hurricane, but why is this?
When watching the national news, the situation seems to be similar to this:
EAST COAST THREATENED:
OUR TOP STORY TONIGHT, tropical storm BOB is showing clearly defined patterns, and all indications say that BOB could turn into Hurricane BOB in the Atlantic sometime this week, and could possibly make landfall in 6-9 days. We go now to XXXXX city, where citizens are already buying up water and boarding up their houses.
Whereas, a Gulf Coast Hurricane is almost like this:
Well, before we go, we have a very amusing story about a DOG WALKING HIS MASTER, this is soo funny, but first, Hurricane Bubba is expected to make landfall somewhere in Texas in the next 3 hours. We all wish them well.
Anyone else ever notice this?
