Example of a SLOSH run A summary of strengths and limitations of SLOSH. Sea, Lake, and Overland Surge from Hurricanes (SLOSH) is a computerized model developed by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), United States Army Corps of Engineers (USACE), and the National Weather Service (NWS), to estimate storm surge depths resulting from historical, hypothetical, or predicted hurricanes.

ANUGA Hydro [3] is a free and open source software tool for hydrodynamic modelling, suitable for predicting the consequences of hydrological disasters such as riverine flooding, storm surges and tsunamis. For example, ANUGA can be used to create predicted inundation maps based on hypothetical tsunami or flood scenarios. The ANUGA name without ...
Maps show the areas impacted by storm surge, rainfall levels and more as Helene, once a major hurricane and now a tropical storm, moves inland from Florida's Gulf Coast over Georgia.
Even though the Treasure Coast was spared from major damage from Hurricane Helene, a Category 4 storm that made landfall Sept. 24, it brought record levels of storm surge to Florida's Big Bend and ...
The National Weather Service Office in Charleston issued Tropical Storm Watch warnings on Wednesday morning that stretch across some of the South Carolina coastline as well as inland areas.
A storm surge, storm flood, tidal surge, or storm tide is a coastal flood or tsunami-like phenomenon of rising water commonly associated with low-pressure weather systems, such as cyclones. It is measured as the rise in water level above the normal tidal level, and does not include waves.
Coastal Emergency Risks Assessment, a map created by Louisiana State University that delivers storm surge guidance, predicts there will be hotspots near Tampa and much of the north-central coast ...
Tropical cyclone forecasting is the science of forecasting where a tropical cyclone's center, and its effects, are expected to be at some point in the future. There are several elements to tropical cyclone forecasting: track forecasting, intensity forecasting, rainfall forecasting, storm surge, tornado, and seasonal forecasting.
