    Storm surge is the abnormal rise in seawater level during a storm that is measured as the height of the water above the normal predicted astronomical tide. Storm surges are caused primarily by strong winds from typhoons, storms, and other strong winds pushing water onshore and can be aggravated further during high tide.
