Re: Milton Conditions in your area

For Cape Coral / Ft Myers the following tide gauge will be critical:

https://tidesandcurrents.noaa.gov/inundationdb/cidstorm.html?stormname=Milton#

Ian registered a max of 7.26 feet, flooding the area.
Helene registered as 5.12 feet and everyone stayed dry.

This only speaks to surge not street flooding from rain

EDIT: corrected link above, the surge values are based Mean Higher High Water (MHHW)

Great thanks to all who donated and everyone who uses the site as well. Site designed for 1920x1080+ resolution.
When in doubt, take the word of the National Hurricane Center.
