Fort Lauderdale resident Kevin Kearney is in critical condition Tuesday after attempting to kite surf in Tropical Storm Fay. By News Video Tuesday, August 19, 2008
lFORT LAUDERDALE ? Emergency officials warned South Floridians to seek shelter during Tropical Storm Fay but a man in Fort Lauderdale seeking some thrills on the rough surf didn't heed that warning and ended up in the hospital after being hurt in an astonishing kite boarding accident that was caught on camera
The kite boarder was harnessed into his sail when the wind violently picked him up and slammed him onto the sandy beach. Then, he was dragged across the sand before being lifted up into the air again and blown across the street where the wind slammed him into a building.

Strong winds and downpours will continue to pound South Florida over the next day as Tropical Storm Fay picks up strength on its journey north.
Most of the region, from Monroe County to Palm Beach County, has already been hit with storms and winds associated with the system, last reported over the Florida Straits and making a beeline for the Lower Keys.
A tropical storm warning was extended along Florida's east coast north to Cocoa Beach and all along the west coast.
"Floridians should not focus on the storm track -- it's a broad area where the storm is going to have an impact," said Gov. Charlie Crist. "We want every Floridian and guest to be a survivor. I know it's only a tropical storm, but we take it seriously."

Tornado watches are likely to come later today for South Florida and the Keys, Crist said. South Florida tornadoes are generally small and narrow, but they can still be dangerous. They can easily flip a car or a trailer. Take cover immediately, weather officials said.

Postoffice Street Cam
Once notorious for its bordellos, Postoffice Street was the bustling core of retail commerce in the Southwest's most important Cotton and Oil port. It survived the 1900 Storm and the depression of the 30s only to fall prey to the suburban shift of the 60s and the building of the Houston Ship Channel.
The Postoffice Street restoration of the 90s created a revitalized arts, entertainment, and residential district including more than 25 historic buildings. Besides the growing number of residential lofts, the area includes art galleries, boutiques, and shops.
The Galveston.com Postoffice Street Cam is located at MOD Coffee House.
