On CNN last night, meteorologist Chad Myers discussed the record snowfall and cold in Las Vegas with Lou Dobbs, who asked him what this had to say about global warming. Myers compared the research models to analyzing the reliability of a three-day-old car:
CNN meteorologist Chad Myers questioned the claim that global warming was manmade during last night's Lou Dobbs Tonight — in the wake of the snowfall in Las Vegas.
"You know, to think that we could affect weather all that much is pretty arrogant," said Myers.
Evacuations along portions of the Texas coast have begun, while much of the oil and natural gas production in the Gulf of Mexico has been shut in as strengthening Hurricane Ike churns west-northwestward. The
AccuWeather.com Hurricane Center reports that Hurricane Ike continues to reorganize over the Gulf of
Mexico after spending two days over Cuba.
The storm has strengthened to a Category 2 hurricane Wednesday afternoon, but further strengthening to a destructive, major hurricane is forecast as it passes over warm waters. Ike is being steered toward the
Texas Coast by a building area of high pressure over the U.S.
As Ike departs the eastern Gulf of Mexico waters, conditions will slowly improve over the Keys, along the Gulf coast of
Florida and western Cuba tonight into Thursday. However, a rogue band of thunderstorms can still affect these areas through this evening.

The
South Regional News story reports that dangerous rip currents and strong surf will pound the Keys and the coast of South Florida this evening. The surf will increase through tonight along the Gulf Coast as far west as
Louisiana.
Ike is forecast to reach at least Category 3 strength as it heads toward landfall on the central coast of Texas, late Friday night or Saturday morning. In waters west of the Texas coast, Ike could become a Category 4 hurricane for a short time.
A
tropical storm warning has been issued for Louisiana from the mouth of the Mississippi River to Cameron and remains in effect for the western Florida Keys. A hurricane watch has been issued from Cameron to Port Mansfield, Texas.

Postoffice Street Cam
Once notorious for its bordellos, Postoffice Street was the bustling core of retail commerce in the Southwest's most important Cotton and Oil port. It survived the 1900 Storm and the depression of the 30s only to fall prey to the suburban shift of the 60s and the building of the Houston Ship Channel.
The Postoffice Street restoration of the 90s created a revitalized arts, entertainment, and residential district including more than 25 historic buildings. Besides the growing number of residential lofts, the area includes art galleries, boutiques, and shops.
The Galveston.com Postoffice Street Cam is located at MOD Coffee House.
