What was the final toll from Ike in Galveston?
Its here now and is really mild, it just dropped from a cat 1 to a tropical storm at about 1:00 I an amazed it isnt dropping that much water. I thought water would be the major problem with this storm. That and a sustained storm surge in Galveston.
weird to see the clouds sweeping north to south.
Since the search and rescue teams are presently unable to reach the west end of the island, that information will not be known for many days.

Water was the problem in Galveston; hence, the inability of rescue personnel to get to many areas still now.
