On the bright side, the lagoon's 5 miles from shore and the plant almost 8, so once the apocalyptic certain-death battering has passed, the 9-foot persistent salt flood probably won't reach that far. If Google Earth is to be believed, the lagoon's bermed up 10m or more over the surrounding incredibly-flat marshland.
I never knew Texas had such a flat coast. Thought I'd turned off the terrain for a minute! Bad place to be when a storm hits.
