Not good is right. The water has only gotten over the road there once with Georges. Now that's not to say that there isn't 50 ft less "beach" there now than when I was a kid (hence the seawall), but Pops sounded nervous. Now that's not good because the man is demonstrably made of granite.

I believe the shape of the coastline is amplifying the storm surge. Not only the curvature from Big Bend toward the West, but also, the "bird's foot" of LA is acting as a dam.
