High tide's right around the approximate landfall time too - only about a foot and a half rise there, but that could still be critical. They just can't catch any kind of break. Of course, if the surge hits 30 ft, the tide's kind of a moot point.
Do you have a safe room just in case?
Hey, show us how you can run and jump into that fancy car without opening the door.
We're interested in this as well. Remember, we're freepers first. But, that last thread was so terrible, it's taking two of us to moderate it. Just remember all the work NautiNurse has done.
Isn't that hard on the filter and pump?
Or do they have a special type of system.
What about bacteria levels in a salt public pool?
Well, salt is sodium chloride, so in a way, it's just another way to chlorinate. I'm at the border of my knowledge here, but I'd imagine they have some kind of sand filter (just like my backyard pool has) to trap most of the particulates (bacteria, etc). I think they just pipe ocean water into their pool systems. Cruise ships also have salt water pools, not chlorinated pools.
Good night. Thanks for all the info you provided.
"I think jabber jabber,etc. just found the recipe for getting kicked off a thread.;)"

Hum along...
'Cause you're a split personality
And in reality
Both of them are you

Katrina may be 'our Asian tsunami'
"Floodwaters from the east will carry toxic waste from the "Industrial Canal" area, nicknamed after the chemical plants there. From the west, floodwaters would flow through the Norco Destrehan Industrial Complex, which includes refineries and chemical plants, said van Heerden, who has studied computer models about the impact of a strong hurricane for four years.
"These chemical plants are going to start flying apart, just as the other buildings do," he predicted. "So, we have the potential for release of benzene, hydrochloric acid, chlorine and so on."
That could result in severe air and water pollution, he said."
====================================
Dr. Gardner on FNC was also saying how much really dangerous infection will spread from the dead animal and human bodies on which the flies will be feeding. This is worse than a horror movie. Prayers for quelling the seas and wind and protection of the fearful thousands awaiting this storm.
Is there another good stream?

You may be RIGHT! :o)
The ones that I have seen happen fast...not like a tsunami, more like when you are standing at the beach and a wave kind of slowly comes up around you and all of the sudden it's up to your shoulders instead of your kneecaps like you thought.
