it was important because it had people on the rooftops and have them writing on the roofs to the helicopters to tell them that they need help.
Hurricane Andrew first developed on August 16, 1992. It made landfall in Florida on August 24, causing extensive damage.
Our hurricane detection and warning systems are fairly effective, and i doubt a school would be open during a highly destructive hurricane any more than a snow day. A footnote about the fate of William Frantz Elementary. I saw a documentary about the valiant effort of the locals rebuilding New Orleans despite little or no outside help. (Sorry, I don't remember the name of the show.) One of the buildings featured was this very school. The outside doesn't look bad, but the flood damage inside made it unusable. The school would have been torn down if not for a lady who is leading a successful effort to restore it. Her name is Ruby Bridges Hall and this school has a special meaning for her. Fifty years ago Ruby walked into the school, with four marshals acting as her bodyguards, as she became the first black child to enroll in an all white school in the south. Norman Rockwell immortalized that moment in his famous painting "The Problem We All Live With." It seems appropriate that the little girl who made the school a landmark grew up to be the woman who would save it.
When you live in an area that is prone to hurricanes, it is only prudent to have a hurricane disaster kit prepared and ready to go at a moment's notice. While it can be confusing to put a hurricane disaster kit together if you've never done it, there a few common necessities that need to be in that kit. These necessities are things like a means to start a fire, a way to purify water, and a source of light like a headlamp or flashlight. Having these simple necessities will help you to weather the worst of any storm, and are a great place to start from.
Tropical Storm Tomas, now Hurricane Tomas is about 155 miles west of St. Lucia, or about 355 miles south-southeast of San Juan, Puerto Rico moving west-northwest at 9 mph.
The dipole moment vector of a water molecule points from the partially positive hydrogen atom to the partially negative oxygen atom. This is due to the unequal sharing of electrons in the O-H bonds, resulting in a polar molecule with a net dipole moment. The dipole moment is important for water's unique properties, such as its ability to form hydrogen bonds with other molecules.

An economist (or anybody who really thought about it for a moment) would say that Katrina destroyed many fuel storage facilities and refining resources along the Gulf Coast. Additionally, transportation to get the fuel out of the area was also interrupted for quite a time.This cause a transient but serious shortage of fuel ... the supply went down, so the price went up.
