  • Hurricane Laura is expected to bring 9+ feet of storm surge to parts of Louisiana and Texas. THIS is why it's so important to listen to evacuation orders.

      Dingle Stingle it did. But we can’t confirm because the water cadges are only in cities. The worst storm surge we’re in forest areas. Even with the cadges we got. There was 10 foot surges in Lake Charles. And it wasn’t forecast to be 20 feet inland. The surge was 20 feet on the coast but was only forecast to be 6-9’ inland. That’s still a lot of water. And still enough to cause billions in damage.

I suppose this is the realization of what they were talking about. Love to see innovations in meteorology and communication to the public! Hope it really did help save lives - I'm still catching up on the full extent of Laura's damage :(
