Trees are going to cause a greater reduction than an open lake — it kind of just depends on the friction produced by what is actually on the ground,” Luchs said.
The strong winds led the storm that pushed south from Dallas and through the Houston area. After hitting Bush Intercontinental Airport at 9 p.m., the storm made its way through the metro area during the next hour or so, Luchs said. The strong gusts were only present during the first minutes of the storm and gradually decreased in strength as the storm passed, he said.
