Here comes the rain







Ike is just starting to hit the island. Lots of news coverage. Reporters standing in the water telling you how bad it is. Already flooding in Galveston & Freeport.

We're sitting about 50 miles inland so the weather looks great right now. Sunny, low 80's and slight breeze. Great weather for south Texas in September. That'll change in a few hours. A lot of people have pulled out heading north. Traffic was ugly and gas in short supply but nothing like Rita a few years back.



Heading out of town


Storm surge has already started on the coast. More pictures later as it hits land (late tonight).
