I was watching Weather channel coverage of this yesterday evening. The correspondent was standing outside trying to gin up the storm's intensity. I've been through a couple of hurricanes in Houston, and they guy was not standing in severe winds. At one point, they cut to him and the wind was hardly blowing at all. Reminded me of Rita when the weather report zoomed in on a can rolling on the pavement as an example of "gale force winds".

I'm sure this is a bad storm, but fortunately, it appears to have stayed more offshore than on.
