NOAA is projecting 10-15 ft
- JamesSwift 2y ago10-15 is probably storm surge and 26 is with waves on top
- perihelions 2y agoI don't know where[a] they found that exact number, but it seems reasonable for parts of the bay interior, because of funneling effects. Same reason the Bay of Fundy has a 16-meter daily tide when the open ocean doesn't do that. ([a] 26 feet is the exact elevation of Tampa International Airport, so perhaps it's that. If you look at the surge maps, they do show a nonzero chance of surge over those runways).
- Vecr 2y agoI got it from the Project Phoenix Scenario.
- Atotalnoob 2y agoProject phoenix is a made up simulation
- Vecr 2y agoYes? When I wrote the original comment the actual data looked pretty close, and I still think it's a pretty good match. It would be difficult to re-calculate bridge damage estimates in real time.
