Many people claim they have the power to see the future, but one valley man put his predictions in writing. He actually wrote a book more than a year ago and in that book, he predicted a natural disaster would hit on the day that Katrina came crashing on the shore. He also predicted another natural disaster would force thousands from their homes today, September 23, and that’s exactly what’s happening in Texas where people are fleeing Hurricane Rita.

Dr. Louis Turi is a doctor of metaphysics. While he says he can predict the future, he doesn’t want to be called a psychic.

"I can look at the stars and tell you exactly what’s going to happen, but it will not be psychic," says Turi.

He says he's a scientist, and the science of Astropsychology is simply to make people aware, but all too often he says people don’t want to know what he has to tell them.

"You can easily lump me with your local psychic, and that’s the problem I have with NASA …The problem I have with the National Weather Service."

Dr. Turi says he knew what was going to happen in February of 2003 when the space shuttle Columbia burned. He even contacted NASA, but they wouldn’t listen.

"I've tried so hard before, days for them not to send the shuttle. I said, 'please don't, you're going to kill these people'," he recalls.

In his book of predictions written and published last year, he wrote that on August 29, thousands of people would be forced from their homes because of nature’s destructive forces. Of course that’s the same day Katrina hit. In the same book it says the same thing on September 23.

"It's [Hurricane Rita] going to be worse than Katrina, even though we are prepared."
