"I've said many times that [if] you want to pick a fight with Mother Nature, she's winning 100 percent of the time," Castor said on Tuesday. She went on to recall that storm surges could be above 12 feet, adding that "individuals that are in these, say in a single-story home. Twelve feet is above that house. So, if you're in it, you know, basically that's the coffin you're in."
