Hurricane Dean map?

Question

My dad needs to find a map to see if the town we live in is in the path of Hurricane Dean. We live in Livingston, Texas. It would help us alot if you could post a link. Thanks for your help :)

Answer 1

Your probably are in the path of Hurricane Dean.

This is a map of Texas and the red dot is Livingston, Texas:

This is Hurricane Dean's projected path:

From both links, it seems that Hurricane Dean is probably gonna come towards your town/city. Its a little bit too early to tell where it might go, since some meteorologists aren't sure if it goes it's predicted path or if it might go up north into the Gulf of Mexico after it hits the Yucatan Peninsula.

Hurricane Dean:

Location: LAN 15.7N LON: 68.6W
Maximum Sustained Winds: 150 mph (powerful Category 4)
Moving: WNW 17mph
Pressure: 929mb

This hurricane seems very dangerous, especially going into a Category 4 this early. You should be prepared or evacuate by next week or wait for instructions from your state Governor or mayor.

P.S. WATCH THE WEATHER CHANNEL AND YOUR LOCAL NEWS CHANNEL FOR UPDATES.

Answer 2

Mixed messages? Why do you think that you cannot read a story about Dean without a mention of global warming? Why do you think that these same news stories are quick to link Katrina to New Orleans when the hurricane did the most damage to the Mississippi/Alabama Gulf Coast? It's politics, pure and simple.

Answer 4

See for yourself and by looking at the following maps of the projected path of the Hurricane and the location of your home town:

If it continues in its current path it will be direct hit to mexico. But if it deflects slightly towards Texas, Houston will be in its path. I am no weather expert, I am just telling it from the maps I have cited above.

Answer 5

Look in sources. If you don't know how to read these graphs, the time indents are the margin of error. In other words, the hurricane's eye can go to the north or south of the projected line. The hurricane symbol is the location as of tonight.

Answer 6

I live in Cleveland Texas as far as we know at the moment it is going south of us. Things could change but you are pretty high up. You may get some wind and rain but we being further from the gulf have a fighting chance.

Answer 7

Try this site: www.weather.com
Its the link to The Weather Channel website. They have maps and projections that track the path and possible paths.
There is a map you can print out too.

Answer 8

You need to get prepared really good because dean is now a CAT 4 (with gusts at 180 mph) and expected to become a CAT 5 with 160 mph winds (with gusts around 210 mph). You should just need to get ready extremely well and pray to god it doesn`t hit you guys

Answer 9

Here is a link to show where they think that Dean will hit. It also shows the paths of other hurricanes.
