Maybe the eastern shore got hit with surge as the eye pulled away but the big surge looks to be from Naples up to Sanibel. The major impact for Punta Gorda was wind, and I’m sure they got rocked. I wonder if it was worse than Charley. Probably lasted longer. Highest surge so far 11 feet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CNY_WX Posted September 28, 2022 Share Posted September 28, 2022 It looks like NASA made the right decision moving the Artemis rocket back to the Vehicle Assembly Building. If Ivan stays on the current course it looks to exit the east coast around Melbourne. That would put Cape Canaveral in the remnants of the north eye wall. I don’t think that rocket was designed to withstand that kind of wind and rain. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The surge would be that height above ground level plus the height above normal water level. So if a location is 13 feet above normal water level, 10 feet above ground level, and got flooded the surge was at least 13 feet. The surge is the height above the normal water level at that time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus no rocket should get hit with lightning, which is a possibility as well. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once it is in the air it is different, as it is no longer grounded. Similar to an airplane. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In fact they were showing all the blow-out tides. I did see pics/vids similar to that for Naples and Ft. Meyers. Punta Gorda is getting the heavy rains, flooding , and some surge in the low-lying/beach areas now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SchaumburgStormer Posted September 29, 2022 Share Posted September 29, 2022 PDS flash flood emergency, don’t see that combo too often. This is a FLASH FLOOD EMERGENCY for South central Sarasota county, southeast Manatee, northwest Desoto, Hardee, and northwest Highlands counties. This is a PARTICULARLY DANGEROUS SITUATION.

Storm surge is exactly what Fort Myers is experiencing. Punta Gorda got blasted by those backside eyewall winds but looks like they avoided significant surge. Also that video you posted has “City of Naples” written on the side of the door of the fire truck. People need to stop trusting these twitter posts from random accounts without verification. 4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
