sed to live in Naples and I can tell you that if 10 ft or more of surge is pushed into Naples Bay, Old Naples will be inundated. And if the surge is that high, that area will also take on water from the beach side. And further north, if the Imperial and Cocohatchee Rivers get 10 ft of surge it will flood a lot of North Naples and Bonita Springs.
Well we will know for sure in Bonita Springs...

Perhaps you can provide a little clarification for me. I also read the "above ground" phrasing on the NHC Inundation Map page. Why do they use this nomenclature? I'm guessing they word it that way for people who don't know the elevation of their homes.
A friend's home in Cape Coral is in the "greater than 9' " area on the map. His slab is right at 10' elevation. If I heard there was going to be a 9' - 12' storm surge, I'd think he'd have a chance of getting a foot or two of water in his house. But if the NHC's wording is accurate, he might have 10' of water in his house.
The NHC map shows the surge height that has a 10% or less chance of being exceeded above ground level.

You can use this link to change the options to either "Above Ground" or "Above Datum", the latter being sea level. Parts of Cape Coral may see surge above sea level of 15-20 feet.

think the reason for the evac was the surge coming in with high tide.
Well that's the current narrative to save face. The original reason was the bullseye put on the area by all of the media. That came from the ensemble line drawn by the models.

Pull up a Water Vapor loop or Sat IR. She will ride that dip all the way up into the panhandle and curve west far inland.

Storm surge doesn't account for the waves on top of that...

They must live quite a bit inland because the inundation map shows quite a bit of it underwater.

FWIW
This is a link to a group of ham radio operators exchanging "feet on the ground" reports.
There are links for live audio. This time of day, the Minnesota link sounds best.
