episode_narrativeTropical Storm Fay affected South Florida on the 18th and 19th of August. The storm made landfall early in the morning of the 19th near Cape Romano, and moved over inland sections of South Florida during the morning and afternoon hours of the 19th, exiting the area near Lake Okeechobee. Fay caused tropical storm force winds, significant rainfall flooding in some areas, as well as two confirmed tornadoes.
event_narrativeDue to Fay remaining at tropical storm strength and the rather limited nature of its wind field, storm surge and coastal flooding impacts were rather minor. The highest storm tide was estimated to be in the Everglades City/Chokoloskee areas, where the maximum storm tide was in the 5 foot range according to tide gauge data and estimates from local officials. Water of 1-2 feet deep was observed in Everglades City, and the Chokoloskee Causeway was under water for a short time on the morning of the 19th. Minimal storm surge was noted elsewhere, although moderate to locally severe beach erosion occurred in Naples.
