If anything, the higher water level will probably make it easier to get boats there for evacuation.

Great point - thanks.

But taking ten thousand people, maybe without what few possessions they had, all of them stressed, some sick, some infirm, lots of children, and evacuating them all out by small boat...wow. The word "Dunkirk" keeps popping into my head.
