The Houston/Galveston National Weather Service 2006 Hurricane Workshop, presented by CenterPoint Energy, will take place on Tuesday, May 30, from 4:00 to 9:00 p.m. at the George R. Brown Convention Center in downtown Houston, Texas.
The 2005 Hurricane Season will go down as one of the most disastrous seasons on record. Numerous long-standing records were broken, including the costliest hurricane on record when Hurricane Katrina struck South Florida and the middle Gulf Coast states at the end of August. Katrina killed more than 1,300 people. With Katrina fresh on the minds of citizens in Southeast Texas, Hurricane Rita became a serious threat to our area less than one month later. Although Rita eventually made landfall just to our east in the Texas-Louisiana border area, massive evacuations, along with a shortage in gasoline and other supplies, occurred across Southeast Texas.
This workshop will consist of a main session with several keynote speakers along with numerous breakout sessions that will cover the lessons learned from Hurricane Katrina and Hurricane Rita. Other hurricane related topics will also be covered. A vendor area will also be available for companies involved in hurricane preparedness and hurricane protection.
