Hurricane Ike made landfall on the island of Cuba and weakened to a Category 1 storm, but its present projected path would take it back over water before long.
And, in Ike's brief but potent existence, the storm has shown a tendency to intensify when it's over water.
It's still far too early to tell what the storm may do. Its current path would take it to the Texas coast, possibly the Galveston area.
But the path could change once the storm begins its trek across the Gulf of Mexico.
The Galveston County Daily News isn't sounding any alarms yet — but it's wisely monitoring the storm's progress.
At this point, that's about all anyone can do.
