now. we are expecting 5-10 feet of storm surge. not just that. on top of that, you are going to have very tall and destructive waves. it s not clear it s a survival situation for anyone still there in the keys. thank you very much, acting director and rappaport. we are going to have a lot more on this. where it s heading, impacts when we get back. shepard: that s our south florida new station, wvsn 7. they ve never seen a hurricane like this. hurricane andrew was scheduled at one point, the mayor of palm beach county, predicted coming into palm beaches. the most recent forecast before the storm hit land was for it to come somewhere from the miami-dade-broward county line and hit the causeway where the station is located. it went maybe 20 miles south. went to homestead and just wiped out the southern tip of florida.
