Storm Surge

Storm Surge is a temporary rise in sea level caused by strong onshore winds and low atmospheric pressure associated with storms, particularly tropical cyclones and extratropical systems, which distinguishes it from other forms of sea-level variation by its meteorological origin and coastal inundation potential.
