Synopsis
September 8, 1900. Galveston, Texas. A typically hot and humid day. Women tended to chores; men traveled downtown to work, including Isaac Cline, head of the National Weather Bureau's local office. Cline believed the island was safe from hurricane, but byafternoon, a Category-4 storm proved how wrong he was. In a feature-length special based on Erik Larson's book \Isaac's Storm\, weather experts, historians, and survivors' descendants guide us through that horrific day that claimed over 6,000 lives.
