That’s a good question. No doubt a good portion of the flooded areas will drain. The bigger question is for W. Galveston and Bolivar Peninsula. Ike may have altered the geography permanently.

Remember Captiva after Charley?

Captiva was badly injured in August 2004 when the merciless Hurricane Charley struck North Captiva. The tempest surge cut a path 365 meters wide across the narrowest part of North Captiva, making it two separate islands. The new pass has not been formally named, but the locals call it "Charley Pass".

could someone help me? I have a daughter-in-law and granddaughter in Orange,Tx. I talked to her by cell phone this afternoon. They had water to their porch. They were not being rescued, only people on the roofs were. I can't reach her now. Is their somewhere where I can find out if she is safe, or if the water has receded or flooded more. I am in Oklahoma and feel so helpless.
