Great Disasters: Galveston Hurricane 1900: Isaac’s Storm Part 3 of 8

admin — Thu, 16 Jun 2011 19:23:15 +0000

This feature-length special based on Erik Larson’s book “Isaac’s Storm”, weather experts, historians, and survivors’ descendants guide us through that horrific day that claimed over 6,000 lives. September 8, 1900, began innocently in the seaside town of Galveston, Texas. Even Isaac Cline, resident meteorologist for the U.S. Weather Bureau failed to grasp the true meaning of the strange deep-sea swells and peculiar winds that greeted the city that morning. Mere hours later, Galveston found itself submerged in a monster hurricane that completely destroyed the town and killed over six thousand people in what remains the greatest natural disaster in American history–and Isaac Cline found himself the victim of a devestating personal tragedy. In this special presentation, Larson, along with weather experts, historians, and descendants of those lucky enough to have survived the violent storm, guide us through the events of that horrific day. They detail the stories of heartbreaking loss, selfless heroism and the tragic folly of one man’s faith in science that resulted in the most lethal storm in American history

Hurricane Ike Storm Surge Bashing the Galveston Seawall

admin — Mon, 28 Feb 2011 04:00:40 +0000

This video was an ENG package I sent out to media outlets of the incredible storm surge beating the seawall in Galveston, TX the evening before Hurricane Ike made landfall. Winds were gusting to near 70 mph at this point. Most of the buildings you see in this video don’t exist any longer.

The first building you see in the video is the historic Balinese Room. http://www.balineseroom.net/
This is some of the last known video of the place still standing.
