Storm Characteristics and Motion
The radius of maximum wind (RMW)/) is crucial. Smaller, more compact storms, (low RMW) tend to produce localized, extremely high surges because the energy is focused over a narrow area. Larger storms distribute their forcing over a wider area, leading to a lower peak but broader inundation zone.
Furthermore, the interaction between the storm's forward motion ($V_f$) and the local [tidal phase… -
