Coast Guard Helo conducts a pre-Hurricane Ike overflight

In this video by the U.S. Coast Guard, an Air Station Houston HH-65C rescue helicopter crew conducted a pre-Hurricane Ike overflight of the Freeport/Galveston coastline. Numerous ships including shrimp boats and barges can be seen taking the necessary cover for the impending storm, Sept. 11, 2008. Heavy surf arrived early, erasing the beaches and threatening houses being prepared to weather Ike.

Funniest comment ever. Talk about not having a clue.

I'll type slowly.... this video was made on 9/11/2008. Because we still have 9/11 on the calendar every year. This year, hurricane Ike was present.
