warned residents of Bolivar
Peninsula, a 32-mile strip along
the coast, that they may be cut
off by 5-foot tides.
By dusk, however, the weath
er was clearing and winds sub
siding on die island.
Galveston Mayor Roger
Quiroga said a voluntary evacu
ation had been recommended
for residents along the western
side of the island, which is not
protected by the seawall built af
ter the great 1900 storm that
killed about 6,000 people.
“We might get a little beach
erosion from this system but all
in all, it’s just a wake-up call and
we’re getting a lot of much-
needed rain on the island,”
Quiroga said.
In Jefferson County, in far
southeast Texas, assistant emer
gency management coordina
tor Darlene Koch said campers
at* Sea Rim State Park were
moved to higher ground. Resi
dents were advised sections of
Texas Highway 87, which bor
ders the Gulf of Mexico and
frequently floods, already were
covered with water Tuesday af
ternoon, Koch said.
Galveston had not been
struck by a tropical storm since
1998, when Frances stalled off
the coast and caused severely
eroded beaches and widespread
flooding in the Houston-
Galveston area.
Traditionally Texas is consid
ered most vulnerable to tropical
systems from late July through
mid-September. Allison formed
on just the fifth day of the At
lantic hurricane season, much
earlier than usual.
“It’s something that really
wasn’t anticipated this soon into
the season,” Duffey said.
“Thankfully, it’s moving fast
enough that it probably won’t
cause too much damage. The
winds at this time aren’t danger
ous as long as people stay inside
and tie down their outdoor fur
niture so it doesn’t become fly
ing missiles.”
The storm was projected to
veer northeast as it moved in
land, possibly bringing rain to
East Texas, northern Louisiana
and Arkansas.
