Ike's impact

I was introduced to The New York Times while at BYU. The Times still does a great job telling a story in very few words. This map is case-in-point. It is the best picture I've seen of how the winds and storm surge affected the Texas coast.

What are the chances that the eye of the hurricane would travel up Galveston bay?

(Shawnie's parents live about where the white line on the inset box and the shading meet up one the western edge of the storm.)
