May 22 Wine & Stars Santa Fe

So what do scientists, Saturn, and Cabernet have in common? Well if you were at Haak Winery on Friday night you would have gotten acquainted with all 3. Members from the Star Gazers from Galveston and the Johnson Space Center Astronomical Society brought out their telescopes and set them up near the vineyard. Guests, while sipping on some great Haak wines, strolled from one telescope to another to see those twinkling lights up in the sky.

Listen to Talk of the Bay, as we enjoy the evening with our star gazing friends. Look for this fun event to happen again in the fall. The Haaks serve up really good food to go along with the Wine and the Stars. Check out their site www.HaakWine.com and have a look at the fun (we apologize for not getting more photos, the flash was not welcomed)

This was footage I took as we drove to the port of Galveston. Our honeymoon was spent aboard Royal Caribbean’s Splendour of the Seas. We sailed from Galveston, Texas with stops in Cozumel and Costa Maya, Mexico. It was a wonderful 5 days away! Music by Enya (Caribbean Blue)

Look Back at Hurricane Ike Hurricane Ike Strikes the Same Spot as the Deadliest Hurricane in U.S. History The Weather Channel’s Meteorologist and Storm Tracker Jim Cantore from Galveston, Texas Almost a hundred years later, Texas residents are again faced with clean up after Hurricane Ike. The single-most deadly hurricane in U.S history was the one that hit Galveston in 1900 and killed 8,000 Americans. It swept the booming city of Galveston away, opening the door for Houston to flourish.

One of the most trusted authorities for weather information, Jim Cantore goes into more detail on the devastating storm, and how it will be explored in the second season of “When Weather Changed History,” which premiered on Sunday, October 5 at 9:00 PM ET on The Weather Channel.

The original series, which won awards and broke viewership records, returns with 14 new episodes exploring weather-related circumstances known to affect the outcome of history and revealing the sometimes surprising connections of weather on the course of events. Season two will provide insights into weather’s effect on momentous historical events – such as D-Day, the Titanic and the Hindenburg – as well as in-depth exposition about well-known American experiences like the Dust Bowl, the Great Chicago fire, and the Galveston hurricane.

Talent/Guest: Jim Cantore, Meteorologist and Storm Tracker for The Weather Channel

Jim is one of the most recognized faces in weather today. His passion for field reporting during extreme weather events is well-known among viewers. Whether it’s “thunder snow,” an ice storm, tornado chasing or a category 5 hurricane, there is no place Jim would rather be than right in the “eye of the storm.” Though Jim is best known for his animated, live field coverage over the last 15 years, his contributions span well beyond this. Jim was the creator, producer, writer and talent for an annual on-air segment, The Fall Foliage Report. During the 1999-2000 NFL football season, he was part of the FOX NFL Sunday team, reporting on the games affected by the weather. Jim has reported from events such as the Space Shuttle Discovery launch and the Winter X Games. He has hosted several documentaries for The Weather Channel, including Wildfire and The Power of Weather, an educational program for children.
