Houston’s next big landmark (Sept. 27, 2024) – Houston Public Media

On Friday’s show: Hurricane Helene is causing dramatic storm surge, flooding, wind damage, and widespread power outages across the southeastern United State. We ask Houston’s own meteorologist Matt Lanza from Space City Weather and The Eyewall about the latest and what this storm could have done to us had it come to Houston.

And we learn about the indictment of Fort Bend County Judge KP George.

Also this hour: We still have the shell of the Astrodome, but does Houston need a new “big honkin’ thing” — some sort of significant landmark to help define us?

And, from some Houstonians appearing on a list of the nation’s top philanthropic couples, to the Astros taking the hard way to a fourth-straight division title, we discuss The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly of this week’s news.
