Journal 20 – Hurricane Paul is expected in Mexico
Yesterday, we were talking in the class about different disasters as earthquake, dust storm, flood, drought, smoke and hurricane.
Today, October 24, 2006, I read that in some areas in Mexico is a emergency condition. Forecasters predicted that Hurricane Paul could hit Mexico’s Pacific coast on Wednesday. The civil defense director said that about 3,000 families could be evacuated from flood risk areas.
Mexico was struck by two Pacific hurricanes last month. Both Atlantic and Pacific hurricane seasons will end about November 30.
Poland, my native country, lies in the moderate climate and I never experienced these kinds of disasters. A few years ago, the south region of Poland was haunted by flood. Poles don’t have experience how to fight with these kinds of catastrophes.
