As I've mentioned, my in-laws live in Galveston. They were there during the hurricane and took some pictures, which I thought were pretty interesting. So I figured I'd share...you can see some after the jump...
This was the Strand in Galveston, before Ike even hit. The flooding was from the storm surge in advance of the hurricane.
Same thing...
