As a 33yr old Brownsville Resident, Dolly has got to be the worst storm I have witnessed. There wasn't a single street in Brownsville that had no trees/branches or debris. Damages included over-flowing canals (flooding), roofing, Downed power lines, up-rooted trees knocked over onto housing or vehicles, and list goes on and on. Thankfully no life was lost.

As I drove around Brownsville (Thu 24 Jul 2008) I noticed city officials driving around as well and helping where help was needed.
I am proud as to the way Brownsville handled and prepared for Hurricane Dolly.
