O.K. So,I was just watching the Weather Channel (who isn't), and Jim Cantorre just said that Port Arthur should expect a storm surge of 20 feet and that the seawall there can only hold a 14-foot storm surge. I though it was 15. But, he's the expert.
He's already moved to an upper level balcony view on the Galveston Island, and the camera is pointing down so we can see the water crashing over the seawall. Still looks very ominous.
The aerial views of Galveston/Crystal Beach show the storm surge already visible. Water has crept inland and covers the ground. Here in Slidell, all the way here in Slidell, we have a flood warning. Cities to the south of us are being inundated by the storm surge.
Very troubling to see.
