This wasn't the station's first brush with a tropical storm, either. KHOU was also forced to evacuate the building during Tropical Storm Allison in 2001. That prior storm -- which Harvey could end up eclipsing -- left 41 dead and caused around $9 billion dollars in property damages by the time it was over.
This latest evacuation went smoothly for KHOU, at least. Everyone got out of the building, and the station is now off the air.
