Well, at least how see much of the USA infrastructure is prone to great disasters and the ripple effects it can have on other parts of economy and us they can have even without directly having been in the disaster. It would only take about 10 of the big transformers in the power grid of us to pretty much take down the power grid of USA and how a great percentage of the us refineries sit in big time disaster prone places like a coastline. Hurricane IRMA could possibly go into the gulf of Mexico still...the chances of that have gotten better now but it could still go elsewhere and the first refineries aren't suppose to be back in operation until September 15....and all the flooding in Houston will not go down for a couple of weeks...so if there were to be a lot more rain from a tropical system in the during that time who knows what could happen...downtown Houston will be a goner if addicks dam were to fail which is only an earthen dam and not concrete. Louisana got saturated by Harvey too so if another hurricane were to hit soon it could be in the same boat as the Texas coastline and shut down the refineries there too.
