GALVESTON, Texas (KTRK) -- As high winds and rain made their way across the Houston area from Tropical Storm Cindy, reporter Miya Shay was in Galveston watching developments there.

After some pelting rain earlier this morning along the fishing pier on 81st Street, things are calmer although the wind continues to pick up. The Tropical Storm Warning has been cancelled for the area.
