Hurricane Warning For New York? Da Po Blog Was Right Again!
Associated Press – June 11, 2007 9:25 PM ET
NEW YORK (AP) – Homeland Security Secretary Michael Chertoff is warning that New York City should brace itself for a natural disaster — a hurricane powerful enough to cause serious flooding in lower Manhattan and other low-lying areas.
Chertoff spoke as he toured a new command center at the Office of Emergency Management in Brooklyn today.
Weather experts say New York City is due for a major hurricane with 130 mile an hour winds and a 30-foot storm surge that could cause the Hudson and East Rivers to overflow.
Hey up there! Any and all who sheltered us in NY after Katrina, you have a place here if you need it, drop me a line!
Hmmm….. Think there might be a bit of an uptick in interest in what happened to us in the coming future?
Hat Tip to Da Po Blog for the info in my prior post and HumidCity reader RadaintArchangelus for the tip on Chrtoff’s announcement above.

Didn’t they make a crappy movie about this staring Dennis Quaid and Jake Gyllenhaal?
Now if the story DOESN’T happen I say you use it as a way to remind the media, “Hey remember us? Do a story on our lack of progress since you just dodged this bullet.” It’s “newsy” this week only drop two reporters that suggestion and a few photos it will give them something to focus on.
