Actually, they had had less than 4" of rain from Isaac by then. The wind was 35 gusting to 48, and had been just a bit higher, with that wind from the East, not a surge-boosting wind, which would have to come from the South. They have a strange, continuous Tornado Warning going, strange, because a Warning is not supposed tobe issued until an actual tornado is seen, either on the ground or on radar.<br /><br />The wind at Gulfport is supposed to veer to the South, but won't do that until the 'cane passes well inland, and by then, the potential for surge is much less. My guess is that a maximum surge for Gulfport would be 5 feet, and they should be able to handle that.Rivrdoghttp://rivrdog.typepad.comnoreply@blogger.com
