Potentially dangerous storm surge is possible tonight along the sound side of
the North Carolina Outer Banks from Ocracoke Inlet to Duck, where a Storm Surge Watch is in effect pic.twitter.com/Dyx7cw3ZSg

Using available observations and a post-landfall hindcast simulation of
SLOSH, the NHC's Storm Surge Unit estimates peak storm surge inundation values of 9-14 ft from Mexico Beach eastward through Apalachee Bay. Highest surge is estimated near Mexico Beach and Port St. Joe.

A destructive and life-threatening storm surge event will occur along portions of the Florida Panhandle, Big Bend, and Nature Coast on Wednesday and Wed night. The worst storm surge is expected to be between Mexico Beach and Keaton Beach where 9-13' of inundation is possible. pic.twitter.com/Koao5p4GIk

Here's a quick info-graphic describing how to most effectively use the Potential Storm Surge Flooding Graphic.
It's simplistic in that the water levels depicted describe the height above ground that water could reach at a given location. pic.twitter.com/vHB9DWLv3s

Water levels will rise well in advance of the arrival of #Michael. It's essential that residents within the storm surge warning area finish preparations to protect life and property today. pic.twitter.com/0Xz3nNkAnr

As of 4pm CDT Mon Oct 8, a storm surge warning is now in effect for the Gulf Coast of Florida from the Okaloosa/Walton County Line to Anclote River. A storm surge warning means there is a danger of life-threatening inundation during the next 36 hours in the indicated locations. pic.twitter.com/cvlfRJWObq

A life-threatening storm surge from Michael is expected along much of the coast of the Florida Panhandle with peak inundation values occurring within the Big Bend.

A Storm Surge Watch has been issued from Navarre, FL to Anna Maria Island, FL, including Tampa Bay. A Storm Surge Watch is issued when life-threatening storm surge of at least 3 feet is possible. pic.twitter.com/WoRrA7FUqa

The risk of dangerous storm surge continues to increase as TS #Michael is expected to be a hurricane and affect portions of the Florida Gulf
Coast that are especially vulnerable to storm surge. Residents in these areas
should closely monitor the progress of this system

There is an increasing risk of dangerous storm surge over portions of the northern Gulf Coast by mid-week. Residents in these areas should closely monitor the progress of Tropical Storm #Michael

Using available observations & a post-landfall SLOSH hindcast, @NWSMoreheadCity & @NHC_Surge estimate peak storm surge induced inundation of 8-11 ft AGL in the Neuse River & its tributaries. These initial estimates do not account for freshwater flooding & will be verified/updated

It is important to remember that the NHC potential storm surge flooding graphic is a forward looking product (i.e forecast flooding) and may not accurately represent flooding which previously occurred prior to the issuance/effective time.

A life-threatening storm surge is expected from #Florence, particularly along the North Carolina coast between Cape Fear and Cape Lookout, including western Pamlico Sound and the Pamlico and Neuse Rivers. Water levels are already quickly rising in these areas @NHC_Surge pic.twitter.com/wyxrp20CGJ

Given the rarity of the magnitude of #Florence's storm surge forecast, it can be hard to grasp what that might look like or the impacts it could have on your community. We ask that you heed evacuation orders for your area if issued by local authorities. Time is running short! pic.twitter.com/Tg6wQnJMvK

If you are within the storm surge warning area for Hurricane #Florence, the window of opportunity to take action is quickly closing. Conditions will deteriorate rapidly tomorrow. Heed local evacuation orders immediately. pic.twitter.com/xI3OnKOD0y
