Could all of us in Texas be dealing with more hurricane activity?

When a major natural disaster hits, we all ask ourselves how we can help.

Locally, we have been informed of a new phone scam claiming to be the Amarillo Police Department.

Some do include footage from Louisiana along with their footage of Texas.

If you have been wanting to help the people in the Carolinas but don't know how there is a way to make your dollars go further.

I was taking a look around Facebook when I noticed my cousin, Richard Harvey, Jr. (No relation to Hurricane Harvey) when I saw how bad the water was, even north in The Woodlands. I had a chance to speak with Debra Harvey, (no relation to the Hurricane). She lives in The Woodlands in far north Harris County. She tells us about how things are for them at this time.

As the devastating effects of Hurricane Harvey continue to affect the Gulf Coast and Houston areas of Texas, many people have been asking "how can we help?"

Hurricane Odile slammed into Cabo San Lucas on Sunday night. A category 3 storm with 125 mph winds and six hours of rain. Up to 30,000 tourist have been stranded on Mexico's Baja California peninsula, including a family from Amarillo.

Superstorm Sandy has caused a lot of damage. People have died, homes have been destroyed, businesses have been ruined. Americans across the country are reaching out by donating money, time, food, and clothing, but they're also reaching out with message of hope in the blog NOLA To New York.

Hurricane Sandy was the sassiest of storms, to say the least -- the entire East Coast was affected in one way or another. Although the worst of the weather is over, Frankenstorm has still forced millions of people to stay inside and wait for outside damage to be cleared. Cue: major cabin fever.

While many people took to Facebook bragging about how much booze they stockpiled and how Hurricane Sandy wasn't very strong at all, the following heartbreaking scenes were happening in other places. It's awful. To give you a better idea of the destruction, we've provided before pictures as well. In case you thought maybe people like to swim down FDR drive.

Photos of Hurricane Sandy flooded social media sites throughout the day Monday, with Facebook, Instagram and Twitter users in the storm's path posting dramatic photos of waves, flooding and downed trees. (Some are fake, by the way.)
