There is quite a bit of information on storm surge, seems most is caused by the wind with about 5% by the atmospheric pressure. On the link below there is a graphic showing what happens when a hurricane goes directly onshore. http://www.islandnet.com/~see/weather/almanac/arc2004/alm04sep.htm The left side gets almost no storm surge due to the off shore wind. I would guess that it could have a low tide, like a negative storm surge. |
