A dangerous storm surge will raise water levels by as much as 6 to 8 feet (2-2.5 meters) above normal tide levels, accompanied by "large and destructive" waves, the NHC said.
NHC prognozē, ka viesuļvētras dēļ ūdens līmenis pacelsies divus līdz 2,5 metrus virs normālā paisuma līmeņa un gaidāmi "lieli un postoši" viļņi.
