It's BOGUS. The hurricane didn't hit Texas til TUESDAY the 15th. If a DEADLINE was for the 13th, that means they had to have completed what they were to do TWO DAYS before the hurricane hit.
FROM NASA: http://www.gsfc.nasa.gov/topstory/2003/0715claudette.html Category 1 Hurricane Claudette, the first Atlantic hurricane of 2003, made landfall on the middle of the Texas coast midday Tuesday, according to the National Hurricane Center. With maximum winds still at 80 mph, the NHC predicts five to eight inches of rain will fall due to Claudette. These images from the Moderate-resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) aboard the Terra satellite capture the eye just passing over the coastline at 1:00 PM EDT today, July 15, 2003.
