A visit to the Radio Locator website suggests KTRH would be your best
bet -- it's a Houston "news radio" station and is a 50 kW station like
WWL. It appears to be streaming live via its website. An evacuation
order for coastal locations will be effective as of 12 noon.

The other large Texas coastal city that might be near the landfall site is Corpus Christi, but neither of its news/talk stations stream live. See http://www.radio-locator.com

Just FYI for anyone trying to tune in to the KTRH online stream from Canada --- you won't be able to. KTRH is owned by Clear Channel, thus any ip address that is not US-based will be blocked from listening. 
Really a damned shame (John Hyde, ODXA yg via DXLD)

KUHF, public radio in Houston, does news, and stream separate from their classical music service should be available everywhere. Ed Mayberry, whose home was flooded in a previous hurricane, remember him from International Listener? is still there. See:
