three feet.

how high must storm surge be a hundred yards from shore to make for storm surge
of 15 feet on shore?

How high must water be over the bottom to support five foot waves?

Sure, Jax. Any idea of the impact of wind on water? How about surge,
Jax:? Even seen a 15'storm surge?



OK...how deep must the water usually be at high tide 3' off the
shoreline for a 15' storm surge?
