Ike at 3PM CDT, 9/13/08Tropical Storm Ike (Yes, it's been downgraded!!!) is now moving to the east of Dallas with top winds of 60mph. It made landfall at 2AM local time, right over Galveston. So far, there are four deaths related to the storm, which is miraculous considering how many people remained in their homes. There does seem to be widespread, but not catastrophic damage.
Downtown Houston got the broken glass they expected. In the JP Morgan Chase building, the windows blew out, and office furniture was blown over to the parking structure across the street.
As Ike dissipates, it will merge with a frontal system and bring plenty of rain to the already-drenched Midwest.
Otherwise, the tropics are quiet, especially for this time of year.
