Perhaps not as entertaining as Geraldo, but Weather Channel reporting “6 feet of water in downtown Galveston”....

And that's probably the highest point of the island. Just seeing live shots from Galveston. Lots of debrie. Big chunks of wood mostly, but also some more or less intact structures. And some not so intact as well. Flagship Hotel has major major damage. Part of the pier it's on was collapsed, leaving the building itself isolated. Some light and traffic light poles are still standing though, didn't even rip off the traffic lights or signage. But that's the way wind damage is.
