It's crazy to me that a Tropical Storm over 100 miles away can cause such significant impacts along our coastline. Alberto made landfall in Mexico this morning, but due to its incredibly wide wind field it shunted a 4ft storm surge into the Texas coast, right at high tide and a full moon which lead to significant impacts to Surfside as water breached the sand bars. #alberto #texascoast #texascountry #texasstyle #TXwx #stormsurge #stormchasing #earth #weather #drone #tropicalstorm #tropics #gulfcoast #gulfcoastlife #surfcity #Texas #hurricaneseason #journalism #natureiswild #natureismetal #natgeoyourshot #natgeolandscape #natgeowild #sandisk
