Hopefully we would have detected it before the hurricane got really strong and were able to get most of the people evacuated. Most of the city would be affected, and damages would be astronomical. However, there is no possible way to predict exactly where a hurricane will go or what kinds of damages there will be.

Most of the time if a hurricane hits Texas and would aim towards North Texas, the hurricane would get as strong as a tropical storm. Examples are 2005 when Category 3 Hurricane Rita hit SE Texas, it downgraded to a tropical depression once it reached the Ark-La-Tex area. In 2008, Category 2 Hurricane Ike hit and downgraded to a tropical storm. In 2010 with Tropical Storm Hermine, Dallas was hard hit with the remnants. It would have to depend on the climate if it's warm enough to maintain its strength on land or cooler that it would downgrade it dramatically.
