Texas Masraweyeen
Any Texas (Houston) Masraweyeen, or know of any? How has this experience been like for you? Subhan Allah, I can't even imagine how it would be like to evacuate and leave all of your personal memories and history behind. Subhan Allah, it is a reminder that Allah is the only permanent reality in this life.
I've heard some difficult stories regarding the people who had to pack up and go, getting stuck on the road, etc. May Allah make this situation easy insha'Allah, and protect you from any harm.
Tamenoona when you get the chance.

In general, I feel that there is a significant climate change throughout the world...? Or subhan Allah, there are hadiths that say that such events are reminders from Allah to straighten along the right path. Allahu a3lam...
"i want to ask, Did Sudia arabia ever suffered from natural disaster ever?"
==============
I read recently that in some areas, they had major "seyool" (unsure how to translate in English)...like a huge amount of rainfall+hail that ruined many houses, and affected many individuals.
Even if they don't have a natural disaster per se, I think that their wealth is a huge "fetna" especially when it is not spent in the appropriate manner like building huge castles. I saw some of those pictures, I could not believe what I saw. May Allah bless us with money, but to use righteously insha'Allah.
"thanks God our countries back home don't have these issues that much".
-------
True, but we have much bigger issues that make natural disasters seem like a drop of water in the sea. We have man-made disasters (like the buildings that fall for violating building standards). Also corruption on many levels, bad economy, lack of opportunities, etc. And it is of significance that Egypt started experiencing earthquakes. Rabena yostor 3alena gamee3an insha'Allah.
And thank you for the information on hurricanes vs. tornadoes. I think we have aspiring meteorologists amidst us :) (meteorologist...now that's a tough word to spell, lol)..
A hurricane is basicaly very strong wind alot of rain, that well in the gulf area causes flooding, and other disasters. A tornado, is also strong wind but it is more like a funnel that extends to the ground. It graps things and throws them out, etc.. You can see a tornado, but cant see a hurricane, if that makes sense.
Ahmed: No alhamdlellah I didnt, but know people that did. We got lucky, both hurricanes just passed through without alot of damage other than some trees falling etc...
OR:
hurricanes form over water (tropical waters), from the interaction between these waters and the atmosphere above them. Tornadoes usually form beneath thunderstorms (on land).
I'm no meteorologist, but i'm fairly confident in that explanation.
A bit of hurricane-names trivia
geography.about.com

It was interesting to learn that they used to actually just name them after females until 1978.
Now the important question...what's the difference between a hurricane and a tornado? );
Anyway, what sucks more than having to evacuate texas, is evacuating louisiana, going to houston (Tx), then had to evacuate AGAIN!! How sad and frustrating
As for books, I'll let this famous arabic poetry verse speak of a book's many priceless values, specifically if beneficial and not just reading to pass time.

As for the hurricanes...some people joked and added to your question the following, why especially female names :)
"Oh Allah, I ask you the best from it, and seek refuge in you from its destructive aspect"
"Allahom eni as2alak khayraha wa khayr ma feeha, wa khayr ma arsalt beh, wa a3oozo beka men sharaha, wa shar ma feeha, wa shar ma arsalt beh".
Another narration reports: "Allahom eni as2alaka men khayraha, wa a3oozo beka men sharaha".
El-hurricane season kheles wala lesa ba2a?!!
I was mainly glad because the news coverage took the focus away from Muslims somewhat and made them pay attention to something else besides "terrorism" . Speaking of that, I received a humorous email saying that George Bush is implicating Al-Qaeda for the hurricanes P:

And girls..girls...girls...why the dilemma, take the O.C. book AND the shoes :)
I think I would take everything of memory value, such as pictures, cards, etc.
