We are Houston natives and we were living in Yorktown VA when Carla did her dirty work. It is the first time I can remember that TV coverage was completely turned over to a hurricane or anything else, for that matter. As I remember it sat off the coast for several day before coming ashore. How high was the storm surge do you remember?

Doesn't happen very often. The next time was the Kennedy Assassination, of course.

I just read through this again, it has the storm surge info. I was young then and just observed what I saw, lol.
