If the storm pushed a tree into the house, Allstate would have to pay.

Yup. Because a falling tree is covered. If the storm pushed the water into the house through the storm surge, Allstate should pay, unless a rider specifically excludes 'wind driven water' or all water damage.

Nope. And the standard policy DOES exclude damage caused by "rising waters"... which this certainly was.

Man... if you choose to live on the ocean and BELOW sea level... you've got to plan accordingly.

That's New Orleans that's below sea level, not Mississippi.
