  • awsome album. unless someone has ridden-out a "storm" they can't truly appreciate the absolute raw power and energy they possess. Certainly brings back vivid memories and images from other storms: Hazel, Donna, amd Andrew to name a few. Thanks!

  • Awesome pictures. Living in Sweden we don't have hurricanes that often and that hard, so it's "nice" to see what mother nature can do.....

  • Hi! My niece sent your album to me and since I live about 60 miles from where all this took place I can sure relate to it. We did go inland to wait and see what Claudette would do and saw a lot of damage on our way back home but thankfully nothing happened where we live. Not even much rain. Jean--Aransas Pass, Tx.
