Hurricane Harvey is one of the worst disasters ever seen in Texas. A new analysis from the University of Wisconsin’s Space Science and Engineering Center has determined that Harvey is a 1-in-1,000-year flood event The section of Southeast Texas that has been affected is equivalent in size to New Jersey.
The past week many people have been assisting the Texans and the world watches and prays for all of those who have lost their lives, homes and more.
President Donald Trump and First Lady Melania Trump arrived on the scene late last week and social media erupted. This time is was not the President but the First Lady who was being scrutinized. Why did she choose to wear heels to visit Texas after Hurricane Harvey's aftermath.
The F words team battles it out this week. What's the big deal? Is it a big deal on what someone wears?
We would love to hear from you. Let us know what side you're on.
As well, the F words team does want everyone to be aware that this will take many years and decades to fix what has happened in Texas with the floods and Hurricane. So how can you help? There are may organizations. We have listed a few here and please add to the list.
