In all my dealings with hurricanes any time I was on the west side of a storm we NEVER got any significant type of surge.... north winds always blew the water out, not in.... I would expect the same thing to happen in Galvaston... even for Georges in 98 when we had the eye sit over us in Biloxi for four hours the surge in my part of town was insignificant... 20 miles to the east Pascagoula was dealing with a 12 foot surge... Ivan no surge, Dennis no surge... all on the west side of the storm... hard for the water to rise when you have hurricane force winds blowing it out...
