Does anyone remember the FX movie??
It hit New Orleans and caused major problems with the refineries there.

If I'm not mistaken, it took place around this time.

What was the name of the storm???

4. Hurricane Julia
I guess they just made that one up.

The "Oil Storm" had a lot more than just a hurricane to it, but that was what started it.

Chances are they will re-run it again this week.

--p!

6. This is funny . . .
the site says: Oil Storm examines what happens when a category 6 hurricane in the Gulf of Mexico slams into Louisiana.

There is no such thing as a CAT 6

9. it's so huge a coincidence it makes me wonder...
Does Bushler have some kind of weather control weapon he's using to make another MIHOP happen? It doesn't seem plausible that such a thing could exist. The scale of it is larger than thousands of nuclear weapons. I've heard about cloud seeding experiments but they were all supposed to be even worse than failures and in fact it was not even plausible that they could work.

Still, this is so eerie a coincidence I have to lightly entertain the notion. It smacks of the X-Files spinoff episode about the hijacking and crashing planes into buildings.
