Huricane Karl grows to cat 3

Huricane Karl grew to a category 3 friday morning with wind speeds in the upper of the 120mph range. 1,000 people evacuated to the verde electrical plant mexicos only neuclear genorator. waves were as high as 16 feet in 22 comunities flooding costal roads and towns. There were 14 production wells closed down and evacuated. Mexico is the worls number 3 suplier of crude oil.
Huricanes are allways bad. This one is slowing down the production of gasoline and gas prices will probably rise soon. Huricanes are dangerous but with the technology we have these days it makes it easier to forcast and predict huricans impact force and direction. When they hit everyone is evacuated so it makes for alot less casualties. The towns usually get devistated and with a cat 3 it will probably do some pretty bad damage. Lets hope that everyone makes it out and that the towns dont get to destroyed.
