2016年5月25日 · The Potential Storm Surge Flooding Map is created by processing the resulting 10 percent exceedance levels from P-Surge 2.5, or storm surge values that have a 1-in-10 chance of being exceeded at each location.

What is Storm Surge? Storm surge is an abnormal water level rise generated by a storm over and above the predicted astronomical tide. Storm tide is the water level rise due to the combination of storm surge and the astronomical tide. This rise in water level can cause extreme flooding in coastal areas, particularly when storm surge coincides ...

This national depiction of storm surge flooding vulnerability helps people living in hurricane-prone coastal areas. These maps make it clear that storm surge is not just a beachfront problem, with the risk of storm surge extending many miles inland from the immediate coastline in some areas.

Storm surge and large waves produced by hurricanes pose the greatest threat to life and property along the coast. Storm Surge is an abnormal rise of water generated by a storm's winds. Storm surge can reach heights well over 20 feet and can span hundreds of miles of coastline.

The Potential Storm Surge Flooding map is an experimental National Weather Service (NWS) product that provides valuable new information on the potential storm surge flooding associated with tropical cyclones.

The Potential Storm Surge Flooding Map shows: geographical areas where inundation from storm surge could occur and how high above ground the water could reach in those areas. Areas of flooding on the map are represented in different colors based on water level:
