In the event of an approaching hurricane, the Climate and Weather Impacts on Society and the Environment (CWISE) group at North Carolina State University will generate storm surge projections based on updated hurricane track forecasts issued by the National Hurricane Center. The data management group based at the Baruch Institute for Marine and Coastal Sciences at the University of South Carolina will help to transform these projections into useful information products for the SC Emergency Management Division and other users.
The modeling team has run a total of 576 different storm surge scenarios for each of the South Carolina coastal areas of Charleston, Beaufort and Myrtle Beach.
