Description:

Hurricane Maria struck Puerto Rico and threatened the U.S. coast in 2017. In this project, we show results from storm surge forecasts for Hurricane Maria based on the ADCIRC Surge Guidance System framework. These forecasts take data from the National Hurricane Center wind advisories, and generate storm surge predictions every 6 hours. In this project, we show the wind inputs used by the model and the computed maximum water levels for several of the advisories. For more information on the ADCIRC Surge Guidance System and its products, visit http://adcirc.org/products/adcirc-surge-guidance-system-forecasts/ or go to the Coastal Emergency Risk Assessment web site at www.cera.cct.lsu.

Description:

This simulation was conducted on the Lonestar machine at TACC using the ADCIRC Surge Guidance System. This system runs automatically in the event of an impending hurricane threatening the U.S. Coast. The project contains the wind input file and the maximum water levels computed by ADCIRC for several hurricane Maria advisories. The fort.22 file represents the wind characteristics for the hurricane. The maxele.63.nc file represents the maximum water levels computed by ADCIRC (in netCDF format).
