Record levels at ALL Tampa Bay Area gauges eclipsed and still rising. Surge has been ~6 feet so far in Clearwater. Record broken by almost 2 ft at Clearwater. These are measured against MLLW as noted on the graphic. I’ll update later as levels continue to rise.

That’s crazy given that the storm is relatively far away. She’s a big one!

It's about twice as bad as anything I've seen at my house in Clearwater.

Holy shit, this is huge. I don't know much, but isn't Florida mostly a few feet above sea level and essentially flat? If that's the case, then isn't all of this just water? This is almost unfathomable to my tiny mind
