This year’s Atlantic hurricane<br />
season has already begun. As I<br />
write this, no storm has threatened<br />
the Texas coast, but other parts of<br />
the country haven’t been spared. This<br />
past May, days before the official start<br />
of the season, several people died<br />
after the storm Alberto made landfall.<br />
It’s a grim reminder that the season<br />
can be dangerous.<br />
That’s a lesson we learned all too<br />
well in Texas last year with Hurricane<br />
Harvey. That storm left a wound on our<br />
state that many of us are still trying to<br />
recover from.<br />
And now, we have to gird ourselves<br />
for another hurricane <a title="TNMAG0718 page 1" href="http://viewer.zmags.com/publication/c5588039?page=1"> UPGRADING FLEET SAFETY After a successful pilot r</a>
