Except that it's wrong. Storm surge is caused by the extreme low pressure at the center of the storm "sucking" sea water up into a dome. Hence the lower the pressure of the storm the higher the storm surge, and also why the worst affected point in a storm is the eye.
@@-NxFace- Continually rebuilding in a place that is guaranteed to be destroyed again is stupid. If insurance was forced to insure disaster zones the rates would be astronomical and those rate hikes would be passed to people who live in smart and safe places
I live in Florida & I will say we’ve had a few bad hurricanes but definitely have been dodging them for the past few years now . I usually overlook them because lately our hurricanes have been nothing short of a rainy day . But the thought of a 20 ft storm surge send literal CHILLS down my spine !
The low pressure is only significant inside of the eye but out of curiosity; The lowest pressure reading I saw was around 900mbar or 26.7246 inhg (3195ft MSL). 1inch delta of mercury is 13.6087 inches of water. a drop from standard pressure of 29.92 would be 3.1954 inhg or 43.48523998 inches / 3.62ft of water. average high tide is 3.2 to 4.2ft for comparison. In reality I doubt you would get more then a few inches from pressure alone.
11 years ago I moved back to the US from the Philippines. 2 days before the largest storm ever (to that point) hit. “Storm Surge” was a new phrase and people didn’t know what it meant. So when a 20’ storm surge hit, it killed so many people. Really could have used a video like this back then.
It more than just wind, its the extremely low pressure that create a dome of water under the hurricane. So as the hurricane makes landfall, so dose this dome of water.
@@deanrichard1770he’s correct and it’s very relevant, i live in the florida keys and if the storm makes landfall during high tide, it can make the difference between a flooded house or soggy front yard
I live on a barrier island on the east coast and grew up with hurricanes and nor’easters. I don’t remember hearing about storm surges until 2012 and Sandy. Is this something that’s happening in a changing climate? Is it because the storms are more severe or because there’s more water (melting glaciers)? It seems that these surges are the most destructive part of the storms.
3 yrs ago we started to pack up and move from Oklahoma to Destin We go every summer and we love it that much. It's times like mow I'm glad we didn't. My heart breaks for everyone in the paths of hurricanes. Luckily they have a season and nit all yr round like we do tornadoes and have atleast a week warming unlike tornadoes. We prob are still goin to move there but not beach front like our original plan. Prayers for everyone has Mr. Milton grows and pushes foward. Noone can convince me that these aren't boosted (strength wise) by man.
I went back to my home and it got about 3 feet of water in it, making me wonder how much water had to off been outside, I even boarded up my front door!
They do and have been for decades. Florida has some of the strictest building codes in the nation but as we can see, there isn’t much that can be done against Mother Nature.
A storm surge is a movement moving from the ocean’s surface to maybe 15 feet in a circular radius down to the ocean depths. Out in the deep ocean most this liquid wave is mostly underwater but at the shoreline this circular liquid wave is well above your house and rolling inland at an intense speed. It’s a rolling liquid catastrophe.
I guess there wasn't really time to go into the deeper details. How high can a 12 ft storm surge reach traveling Upland. With no rainfall, is the house at 25 ft elevation safe from the 12 ft storm surge? Depending, I think not. Remembering the 30-foot or 30 m tsunami that struck Japan 4 - 4 - 11 crippling the Fukushima nuclear power campus, among the Myriad of stories was the new Lake created high in the mountains as a stream reversed. Similarly, at the Three Gorges Hydro Reservoir maximum fill level is well below the altitude of Chongqing that many undereducated planners did not understand how thick and strong the pushback on the water flow. The expert who brought the subject up was dismissed, perhaps in more way than one. The city above the Three Gorges Dam floods unexpectedly frequently because of the solid resistance to the water flow from the damn well below altitude. Can a 20-foot surge flood an altitude of 100 ft far from Shore? I believe so from examples I've seen in the past. Add to that the rainfall piling up and blocked by the ocean water coming in similarly to the Three Gorges Dam. 18 in of rain in one day, more or less, at what altitude is one safe from flood water? A 12 ft storm search. Someone who's at 30 ft is safe or needs to hurry up and evacuate? Sounds safe to me without the true physics behind me just remain at my location if I'm at 30 ft. A false sense of security as most people don't understand the physics but have common sense that indicates a 30 FT elevation is more than safe when in actuality saltwater may pass by that very location.
Would a fully solid metal walled house complete with Rick & Morty-style solid metal ascending storm windows ensure that a house on the coast would survive and not be filled with water?
this is incorrect. storm surge is a fortnite mechanism that is used to eliminate players when the player count in a game exceeds a certain amount after a certain amount of zones past.
Maybe it’s time to start thinking about some places are just for visiting not living yearlong and let it go back to nature you can’t rebuild it every year 😉
Watching the news there isnt any way out where I am. The roads are just so conjested, traffi is at a standstill. I believe that I'll be better off staying put. Got plenty of water and food and clean clothes. If the good lord wants me he will be able to find me if he doesnt I pray that he will keep me uder his wing because I am in the direct path of this hurricane. 🥴🙏
I understand you are not experienced in hurricanes. The storm is not going to intensity to a category five, it's going to weaken the center and broaden the wind/rain field
Is it possible to airstrike it or something and destroy it a bit. I mean it can't be that in 2024 we have 0 possibilities of neutralizing or at least lowering the intensity of a storm. I heard stories as kid launching air cannons to break hail clouds.... And that was a while back

It would have to be done on such a large scale that somebody would have noticed. That, and it can’t be applied to hurricanes; this is simply the Corealis effect at its absolute worst (or best).
it weakened because it hit land. now that it’s moving away from land and into the warmer gulf waters, it’s intensifying again. as soon as the leading edge starts hitting the coastline, it will start slowing down. does that help? edit: since i have to apparently spell it out for the slower ones, the land mass it hit is called the yucatan peninsula. it’s that giant landmass sticking up from mexico. that’s why it went from a 5 to a 4. once it clears that and is back over open water, it will speed up again. science!

Lower air pressure, since storms are low pressure zones, will decrease pressure down on the water causing it to rise and be more affected by wind
The low pressure is only significant inside of the eye but out of curiosity; The lowest pressure reading I saw was around 900mbar or 26.7246 inhg (3195ft MSL). 1inch delta of mercury is 13.6087 inches of water. a drop from standard pressure of 29.92 would be 3.1954 inhg or 43.48523998 inches / 3.62ft of water. average high tide is 3.2 to 4.2ft for comparison.

It more than just wind, its the extremely low pressure that create a dome of water under the hurricane. So as the hurricane makes landfall, so dose this dome of water.
Bullshit
What is wind if not just a pressure differential?
@@chigz2 true, faster moving air is lower pressure, that creates a vertical bulge that will regardless of it hit at a lesser category
storm surge is when you don't do enough damage in competitive modes so you take damage over time until you meet or exceed the current damage threshold

The tide levels also affect storm surges.
The tides are a 6 hour cycle and hurricanes last much longer than half a day so it’s not really relevant

Build back on piers. 12 feet up.
12 miles inland
How far inland from the coast line will the storm surge go?
Pinellas is going to be an island chain. This will go across the entire area
12 ft storm surge. What the hell...
It's going to be 15
Will be way higher than 12ft,this storm is pretty much gonna cut Florida in two!
