Long range radar out of both Lake Charles and Houston indicates that Ike is attempting to form an eyewall, The would-be eyewall is still made up of various banding features at this point, but it is looking more organized that it did earlier.
Storm surge in excess of 8 feet has already been reported around Cameron, LA and in the Galveston area.
edit: Storm surge of 8.3 feet has also been recently reported at Sabine Pass.
