Hurricane Ike beefs up for Texas blast
Deadly Hurricane Ike has strengthened to a Category-2 storm in the Gulf of Mexico and is heading towards the southern US coast where authorities in Texas have ordered evacuations.
After ravaging Cuba and the Caribbean, Ike could slam into the Texas coast immediately south of the port of Galveston sometime tomorrow afternoon or night as an even stronger storm, the National Hurricane Centre has forecast.
Ike was expected to become a major hurricane today, the centre said, referring to storms of Category 3-and-above intensity on the five-level Simpson-Saffir scale.
Texans living on the Gulf Coast were bracing themselves for something in the order of the ''Great Storm'' of 1900, a hurricane that killed about 6000 people and produced a storm surge that submerged much of Galveston.
