Telling people stuck in the hurricane to go to the third floor at least.

Let's see NO is 6 ft below sea level. Storm surge of 20-25 ft., with 10 foot waves and 175 miles an hour winds. That mades it 41 ft of water.

The third floor is not going to cut it.

There was a caller into 870 AM...her brother in law is in a nursing center behind the Jefferson Hospital(ground floor).
Only one nurse was left to take care of all the patients. This caller had 2 family members going over to help feed and care for the patients. Heartbreaking!
