Laura is supposed to land around Lake Charles with a 15 foot storm surge

Being mostly a low land area this could be catastrophic for anyone living anywhere between Lake Charles Louisiana and the ocean. In addition to this they expect 110 mile per hour winds there too which means anyone outside not tied to a rope to a tree, or building or car or truck is going to blow away in the wind or at the very least fall down a lot trying to walk with signs and branches flying through the air as well as anything else not nailed down to something solid there. Signs and aluminum roofing and branches usually prove to be the most fatal objects that fly in these kinds of winds.
