IKE has made landfall

IKE made landfall around Galveston Island. 1,800 homes flooding in Galveston and most all off Houston is without power. TWC info reports people stranded on rooftops, extreme surge, high waves, high winds in excess of 90MPH, tornadoes in LA, and inland flooding.

IKE will later bring a sig. flood event to areas waterlogged across TX, OK, KS, MO, AK, Se NE, IA, IL, IN, southern parts of MN, WI, and southern MI. This could be a high end event as the cold front and IKE will combine to bring over 10 inches of rain in some areas.

IKE in west ky may bring a steady soaking of rain less than a inch. TOrnado threat isnt out of the question in West KY mostly Sunday. More details in that.

IKE will bring a tornado threat across East TX, LA, and Arkansas into the Ozarks as far east as the Miss. RIver.
