Local fire fighters are unable to work the flames until the storm passes. As of 3 a.m. EDT, Ike was centered about 10 miles southeast of Galveston, moving at 10 mph. It was close to a Category 3 storm with winds of 110 mph. Forecasters predicted it would come ashore somewhere near Galveston and pass almost directly over Houston. (AP Photo/LM Otero)
