I haven't been able to confirm, but I imagine it was heavily flooded from the storm surge pushed into Galveston Bay and the Ship Channel. So if anyone needs help and support right now, it's likely to be them.
Thanks for the update, I don't know 1255 very well but hopefully someone checks on them. I would be happy to contact them to see if they need help.

My power and water has been restored, it was out for about 3 days. Even on Wednesday, over 60% of Houston is still without power. The gas station lines are long and many of the street lights and intersections are without power.

I had no idea Ike would impact so many people !
