It made a landfall.on one of the islands.. Not the mainland.. Second.. It won't lose strength quickly as Florida is so flat with waters still in the Gulf and the Atlantic to draw from. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MarkO Posted September 28, 2022 Share Posted September 28, 2022 I had been watching the waves from the Lana Kai hotel webcam this morning until it went offline about 3 or 4 hours ago. At that time, it appeared the waves were at the building line. These twitter feeds prove what I suspected. You look at where FMB is located in relation to the eye/eyewall and you can only imagine how high the storm surge must be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The worst of it is likely just beginning for Fort Myers proper and Cape Coral. Winds are finally starting to push water up the river (along with the pressure related surge), and as winds come around to more westerly it should really start to shove water into those canals. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was thinking that as well. My SIL has a house about 10 miles northeast of FMB and although that may sound like a lot, it's only about 15' above sea level and all those canals, who knows how far inland the surge/flooding will get. Even though they'reabout 15' above sea level, the FEMA 100 year storm is 15'. Probably designed to be an inch over flood zone. FEMA going to go broke. Kinda reminds me of Sandy. This one is going to be costly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
