A year ago Hurricane Hanna made landfall near the Willacy County community, Port Mansfield. The area experienced heavy rain and minor flooding, but contrary to many residents’ worries, the issues are long gone a year after.
Port Director Ron Mills said nothing got into anybody’s houses, adding the community has made “pretty much a full complete recovery.”
Now, as state and local officials work to make recovery efforts easier for the next time a big storm comes around, residents are taking advantage of clear skies to improve their homes.
