[0:02] the experts about that Surge and how we
[0:04] are going to see the water coming up
[0:05] over the seaw wall in certain places
[0:07] well we're almost seeing it already and
[0:08] it's only uh 6:30 I mean uh you might
[0:11] say that the estimates were somewhat
[0:12] conservative we were told that uh around
[0:15] midnight tonight the water would first
[0:17] start coming over these uh seaw walls we
[0:19] are uh what a good uh a good five to 6
[0:23] hours away from that and uh it looks to

[0:47] is only about a foot from the top of the
[0:50] seaw wall now there is no way on God's
[0:52] green earth that uh that that water is
[0:55] not going to be on that green lawn next
[0:58] to that building on the first floor of
[1:00] that apartment unit no way I mean it's
[1:02] absolutely impossible I mean unless
[1:03] something incredibly severe happens to
[1:05] the storm you can already get the sense
[1:07] out here that these Seas this biscane
[1:09] Bay is preparing itself to actually come
[1:12] over the shores and that's wha
