thinner than it is where i was. that s 800 feet down the way. right here, you see things are starting to channel in. you got the little break right there. you got the volleyball courts here and here. and it looks like the storm surge has actually grown just a little bit since i ve been here. it s actually starting to fill in just a touch but i think this is about it. the storm surges is in in clearwater beach. it ll be interesting to see the measurement. it ll be close. you have the full moon, the super moon that s making it even jacked up higher. that high tide also came at the same time. high tide was at 12:30. we re still riding high with the tide. and the worst part about it, you guys, it s dark. so if you do try to drive through it and you don t see it, you re going to get stuck. i mean, everything is just going the wrong direction. jane: some of those readings i mean, one of the readings in clearwater beach, 2.7 feet as the storm surge right now.
expecting to see the wind shift continue for the next couple of hours. hopefully it doesn t get worse than what you re seeing. bob: yeah, i hope not because we have to move to higher ground. there s higher ground here. we ll find it. you re right. this storm surge will be elevated, jane, until the wind stops blowing it in. that could be 12, 16 hours, 18 hours from now. ian: that s close to where we were with ada in 2020. that was a tropical storm in a similar position. yeah, just consider what this would look like. this is about to be a major hurricane. it centers about 100 miles off shore of pinellas county where you are, bob. so this just gives you the tiniest little perspective. how vulnerable an area is to storm surge. bob, we ll be checking back in with you. jane: absolutely! tough to see. the volleyball courts there already swamped in ocean water. florida certainly feeling the impacts of hurricane idalia now. want to head out to the national weather service in tampa bay whe
