| Episode narrativeepisode_narrative | Powerful Hurricane Dorian passed 100 miles to the east of Palm Beach County over the northwestern Bahamas. As Dorian tracked very slowly through Abaco and Grand Bahama islands, outer rain bands produced wind gusts of tropical storm force over Southeast Florida, with sustained tropical storm force winds along parts of coastal Palm Beach County. A peak storm surge of 1-2 feet was observed along portions of the Atlantic coast particularly during high tide. |
| Event narrativeevent_narrative | A peak water level of 2.15 feet above mean higher high water was observed at Lake Worth Pier at Noon EDT on September 3rd, with a peak surge of 1.93 feet above the predicted astronomical tide. Inundation was generally between 1-2 feet.||Main impacts from storm surge was flooding along intracoastal waterways. Water over-topped seawalls in many areas of Palm Beach County during times of high tide. This caused generally 2 feet or less of inundation of adjacent streets, parking lots, and docks. A few dockside structures had minor water intrusion. |
