A storm surge, storm flood or storm tide is a coastal flood or tsunami-like phenomenon of rising water commonly associated with low pressure weather systems such as tropical cyclones and strong extra tropical cyclones.
The severity of the storm surge is affected by the shallowness of the water body relative to storm path as well as the timing of tides.
Most casualties during tropical cyclones occur as a result of storm surges.
