NeonPeon Posted October 10 Share Posted October 10 Naples surge seems to have peaked. Fort Meyers shooting up at the moment. Unfortunately there's no data for any of the places you'd expect to have the worst of this. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully the heaviest part misses to the north, but it does seem to be having a hard time advancing north on radar. Models seem to have it mainly along I-4 so Orlando will likely get blasted too, hopefully not as bad as Tampa. It'll be along and north of wherever the quasi-frontal boundary sets up that focuses and dumps out the moist southerly feed east of the center.

RU848789 Posted October 10 Share Posted October 10 The amount of rain (10-14" reported and probably more has fallen in some places with more to come) is just nuts. SIAP, but the NWS in Tampa just issued a Flash Flood Emergency for most of the Tampa/St. Pete area, which is rarely used - it's what was issued in our area when Ida's remnants unleashed that deadly deluge on CNJ/NNJ/NYC a few years ago. BULLETIN - EAS ACTIVATION REQUESTED Flash Flood Warning National Weather Service Tampa Bay Ruskin FL 926 PM EDT Wed Oct 9 2024 ...FLASH FLOOD EMERGENCY FOR ST. PETERSBURG, TAMPA, RIVERVIEW, AND PALMETTO... The National Weather Service in Tampa Bay Ruskin has extended the * Flash Flood Warning for... Central Hillsborough County in west central Florida... Northern Manatee County in west central Florida...

Between 10 and 14 inches of rain have fallen. Flash flooding is already occurring. This is a FLASH FLOOD EMERGENCY for St. Petersburg, Tampa, Riverview, and Palmetto. This is a PARTICULARLY DANGEROUS SITUATION. SEEK HIGHER GROUND NOW! HAZARD...Life threatening flash flooding. Thunderstorms producing flash flooding. SOURCE...Radar. IMPACT...This is a PARTICULARLY DANGEROUS SITUATION. SEEK HIGHER GROUND NOW!

Chicago Storm Posted October 10 Share Posted October 10 Do you see water levels rising from like 1’ to 4’ very fast like around 30 minutes? Yea, it was a fairly steady/quick rise or perhaps 1-3’. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Believe there’s some nuance to this data based on this gauge location. Looks to be exposed to a north wind. The three other Tampa Bay gauges all are running many feet BELOW normal, as the ocean has evacuated towards Tampa Bay’s mouth. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
