Discover the powerful impact of storm surges and their devastating effects on coastal regions. 🌊 Learn how storm surges, driven by strong winds and low atmospheric pressure during tropical storms and hurricanes, cause a significant rise in sea level. We'll explore how the height of a storm surge varies based on factors such as storm intensity, speed, size, coastline features, and the angle of approach. Understand the dangers of storm surges, from rapid water level rise and destructive force to freshwater contamination and agricultural damage. Stay informed and stay safe!
