Storm Damage Is Extensive and Millions Lose Power from Hurricane Ike




Well it didn't hit with the furry of a category 4 or 5 but it still did alot of damage to the eastern coast of Texas and to the city of Houston.

Alot of the area that I vacationed in back a few years ago took a pumeling that is for sure. I stayed up late on friday and watched the Eye come ashore via the different news channels and it did not seem to be too bad but I guess there were alot of things going on that the news cameras (some on Galveston (Island) did not capture.
I guess most of Metro Houston is still without power but it sounds like most people came away unscathed for the most part...which is a good thing I surmise.
