An unusual rise in sea level on a coast due to the action of high winds

The storm surge is defined as the difference between the observed tide and the predicted astronomical tide and is considered to be the meteorological effect on sea level.

Relatively rapid rise in the height of the ocean along a coastline Often caused by the storm winds pushing water towards land
A phenomena wherein sea level rises above the normal tide level when hurricanes or tropical storms move from the ocean along or across a coastal region Technically, this is defined as the difference between the actual sea (tide) level under the influence of a meteorological disturbance (storm tide) and the level which would have been reached in the absence of the meteorological disturbance This sea level rise can consists of three components, the first of which results from low barometric pressure, i e the so-called inverse barometer effect, where lower atmospheric pressure on the surface of the water allows it to rise The second component is wind set-up where the winds drag surface water to the shore where it piles up The third component of the rise is due to coupled long waves where the peak of the wave coincides with the shoreline See Wiegel (1964) and Heaps (1967)
An abnormal rise in sea level accompanying a hurricane or another intense storm The surge height is the difference between the observed level of the sea surface and the level that would have occurred in the absence of the cyclone (after subtracting the normal or astronomic high tide from the observed storm tide)
above normal sea-levels, frequently resulting from intense storms such as hurricanes, capable of submerging land many miles from coasts
The increase in sea water height from the level that would normally occur were there no storm Although the most dramatic surges are associated with hurricanes, even smaller low pressure systems can cause a slight increase in the sea level if the wind and fetch is just right It is estimated by subtracting the normal astronomic tide from the observed storm tide
Quickly rising ocean water levels associated with hurricanes that can cause widespread flooding
The dome of water that builds up as a hurricane moves over water As this water comes ashore with the storm, it causes flooding that is usually a hurricane's biggest killer
A storm surge is an increase (or decrease) in water level associated with some significant meteorological event, e g persistent strong winds and change in atmospheric pressure, or tropical cyclone Its typical effect is to raise the level of the tide above the predicted level In some situations, e g when winds blow offshore, the actual tide level can be lower than that predicted The magnitude of the storm surge is dependent on the severity and duration of the event and the seabed topography at the site In Queensland, most large surges are caused by tropical cyclones
a rise in the sea surface on an open coast, often resulting from a hurricane
A storm surge is a rise in coastal water level caused by a regional low pressure area and water pushed toward coastal shores by prolonged wind forces A storm surge can significantly raise the mean water level if combined with astronomical high tides This rise in water level can cause severe flooding on coastal areas, particularly along shallow slopes along the shoreline
An elevation of the ocean surface resulting from the compound effects of water being pushed shoreward by wind across decreasing depths on the continental shelf, low pressure at the sea surface, tides raising the water level, and winds raising the ocean surface
- the dome of water that builds up as a hurricane moves over water This surge of water causes flooding when the storm comes ashore and is usually a hurricane's biggest killer
A rise of the sea, preceding a storm (usually a hurricane) due to the winds of the storm and low atmospheric pressure
When a storm (i e hurricane) causes water to "pile" up and move as a wall of water
an abnormal rise in sea level accompanying a hurricane or other intense storm that can be 20 ft (6 m) high at its peak and 50 to 100 miles (80 km to 161 km) wide
The abnormal rise of the sea along a shore as a result of strong winds
A departure from a normal elevation of the sea due to the piling up of water against a coast by strong winds such as those accompanying a hurricane or other intense storm Reduced atmospheric pressure often contributes to the departure in height during hurricanes It is potentially catastrophic, especially in deltaic regions with onshore winds at the time of high water level and extreme wind wave heights
A rise in water surface level above the normal level on a lake or ocean coast, produced by wind and/or differences in atmospheric pressure during a storm
short term rise in sea level due to strong offshore winds (see text box for further details)
Rapidly rising ocean water usually associated with tropical cyclones In the past this was a hurricanes most deadly affect But with radar and satallite we are aware of the situation well in advance to head all warnings posted
A rise or piling-up of water against SHORE, produced by strong winds blowing ONSHORE A storm surge is most severe when it occurs in conjunction with a high TIDE See Figure 10
a rise in sea level along the coast as a result of high storm winds
An abnormal rise in sea level accompanying a hurricane or other intense storm, and whose height is the difference between the observed level of the sea surface and the level that would have occurred in the absence of the cyclone Storm surge is usually estimated by subtracting the normal or astronomic high tide from the observed storm tide
