editor Posted August 18, 2007 Share Posted August 18, 2007 CNN just took a live shot from KPRC's towercam on Galveston Island as part of its Dean coverage. Looked pretty ominous in terms of clouds.The next shot in the round-robin was from WVUE in New Orleans which looked nicer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KimberlySayWhat Posted August 18, 2007 Share Posted August 18, 2007 Ah, the media and hurricanes. This is going to get good. Better hunker down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedScare Posted August 18, 2007 Share Posted August 18, 2007 This is going to get good.Especially considering that the ominous Galveston cloud view was neither Dean nor Erin, but rather the usual August moisture accumulation. But, hey, if it gives inlanders an exotic perspective of the Southeast Texas coast, what harm is it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pineda Posted August 18, 2007 Share Posted August 18, 2007 We were at the Wal-Mart on F.M. 2920 & Kuykendahl this morning and they were already completely out of bottled water, either in single bottles or gallons. Between this being a tax-free weekend for back-to-school shoppers and everyone stocking up for the hurricane, I don't think I've seen Wal-Mart so packed before. There was a long line in front of the gas pumps too. I guess everyone really IS paying close attention to the media. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
