From CNN's Gene Norman
The National Hurricane Center today described the storm surge from Laura as "unsurvivable."
The language is reminiscent of the dire warning issued in this part of the Gulf when Hurricane Ike, in 2008, threatened Galveston. At that time, the National Weather Service office in Houston advised those choosing to stay to write their social security numbers on their arms.
The water is already rising rapidly from the storm surge, well ahead of this dangerous hurricane.
