I was just watching ABC 13 Houston and they said that there are 2 buses left to take people out of Galveston and that the local officials are worried. The local officials have asked the people of Galveston to get each other out. They said they could not bring the buses back, and it sounds like there are still people needing to get out.
They also said that there are NO SHELTERS in Galveston because there would be NO SAFE PLACE.
They also said that the local officials and the media are going to be staying at the San Louis Hotel behind the Seawall because it sits atop a bunker and is the safest place. They did say they may still leave though.
Three Questions:
- There are no shelters but they are not going to be busing people out of town any more? There are still 2 days.
- Why can't the San Louis Hotel be a shelter of last resort? Shouldn't there be someplace?
- Did anyone see this? It was on local Houston 13 ABC news around 5:45pm today.
Thanks, this really upsets me and if we can act on this we could prevent a tragedy.
