@Houstontvnews indeed it went into mexico at last minute

The music played during the scroll makes the entire thing look better.
-
The Center for Retarded was closed...
-
My parents were totally freaking out about Gilbert - but in their defense, that storm took up almost the entirety of the Gulf
-
When Hurricane Gilbert struck the Texas Gulf Coast, San Antonio was lucky enough to allow their schools to be in session notwithstanding.
-
Still some districts were out for weeks.
-
Actually, that's not the case. The area impacted by Ike locally was less than what would've been affected by Gilbert and several of the districts and institutions were open the entire time.
-
School closed for all the same places just a couple months ago for hurricane Ike. Deer Park district was out for an entire week.
-
Galveston ISD shut down, too (I was in the first grade back then). My family and I went to Texarkana. Good times.
Did Gilbert accually hit? I was about 2 or 3.
