All Ike has to do is one little move to the east and Galveston is right on the dirty side of this storm that encompasses the ENTIRE Gulf.
I sincerely hope that this non-evacuation doesnt come back and bite some people in the butt.
1) Texas is a far better organized state than LA today and FAR better than LA was in 2005.
2) I do think they need to be moving/evac'ing residents
3) Any sort of major hurricane or even cat1/2 storm making landfall in houston is a major disaster just by its nature. The houston area is huge with 6 million residents.
