     "text": "Hurricane Irma impacted the Gulf coast of Florida, as well as the Southeast Atlantic coastlines of Florida, Georgia, and South Carolina from September 10\u201311, 2017. Storm surge reached 1 to 2.5 meters above predicted tides. Offshore wave heights in excess of 6 meters were observed on both the Gulf and Atlantic coasts of Florida. These large waves contributed an additional 1 to 5 meters of wave runup at the shoreline. The combined effects of surge and storm-induced wave runup created elevated total water levels at the shoreline, causing extensive erosion of the beach and dunes."

     "text": "The coastal change forecast model predicts the probability of where and how primary sand dunes along the coast will be impacted by water levels during a storm. This includes the combined effect of surge and wave runup. The color band closest to the shoreline is the probability of dune erosion, the middle color band is the probability that sand dunes will be overtopped by waves during the storm, and the outer color band is the probability that the sand dunes will be completely inundated/flooded. The model forecast is available on the Coastal Change Hazards Portal and more information about the model can be found here: www.usgs.gov/centers/spcmsc/science/scenario-based-assessments-used-coastal-change-hazard-forecasts."
