Houston is more like 20 feet above sea level not 100 feet.

Parts of Houston are higher. West Houston is about 70 or 80 feet above sea level as I recall. We kept an airplane at the Andreau Airpark near Wilcrest and Westheimer and had to know the altitude there to periodically reset the altimeter due to barimetric changes.
