Movie ReviewsNORTHEAST WAKE UP CALL RUSTY | NEW YORK United States | 06/03/2007 (5 out of 5 stars) "People in the Northeast have this idea that hurricanes are southern storms. This PBS special on the Hurricane of 1938 makes it most clear that the entire north east coast of the U.S. is most vulnerable .After New Orleans and Miami ,New York City is the third most vulnerable city to hurricanes.
What makes this particular story so tragic is that there was no warning. Weather forcasters believed the hurricane would go safely out to sea. I t wasn't until a thirty foot wall of water smashed into Long island that the catastrophy began to unfold. Well done including interviews with survivors," |
