EXCERPT:
BURNETT: “The water will be, and it’s moving — talking about storm surges, it's not just some lake that kind of fills up your yard. This is moving water that could not down your home and it’s going to be 10 to 15 feet above the normal sea level. All of a sudden, that’s going over Barrier Islands. That’s knocking the way homes that aren’t elevated, that aren’t on stilts, not on pillars, and, yes, we’re going to have this larger — people ask me all day where’s it gonna hit. It’s gonna hit everywhere. This whole purple area, we will see category 3 winds or higher, so millions will be without power."
