What happens with water depends totally on the wind direction.  Saw a hurricane years ago that moved from east to west along the Gulf coast and the north winds were the leading edge and removed 4' of water then the eye passed and south winds brought in 12' of water, but the net storm surge was 8' which caused a lot less damage than NWS had predicted.  Timing of tides can also affect storm surge levels.
