| Episode narrativeepisode_narrative | The center of Hurricane Idalia passed about 165 nautical miles to the west of Key West on a northward path through the eastern Gulf of Mexico. Tropical storm-force wind gusts occurred in squalls which passed mainly through portions of the Lower Florida Keys. The maximum winds and rainfall occurred with the passage of one strong rainband which resulted in isolated fallen trees and tree limbs, isolated power outages primarily affecting a street block or two at a time. The combination of an approaching spring tide and strong southerly winds sustained just below tropical storm force resulted in storm tides ranging from 1.0 to 2.5 feet above MHHW along the oceanside. Moderate to heavy ocean wave overwash and street flooding within a few oceanside neighborhoods on the southwest portion of Key West occurred within a few hours of high tide on the mornings of August 29th and 30th, 2023. |
