The Florida Division of Emergency Management warns against walking into receding water in Tampa Bay, highlighting the risks of sudden storm surges during hurricanes.
A recent study indicates that while reverse storm surges may be less dangerous than normal surges, they still pose significant risks to ecosystems and public safety.
Brian Entin reported on the ground during Hurricane Milton, noting the unprecedented lack of water in Tampa Bay, which highlighted the dangers of reverse storm surge.
Meteorologist Ernie Jillson explained that bays are particularly vulnerable to reverse surges due to their bowl-like shape, which allows water to be rapidly displaced.
