Helene’s powerful storm surge killed 12 near Tampa. They didn’t have to die.
Helene was never predicted to hit Tampa — it’s eye made landfall 180 miles north. But at more than 200-miles wide and winds whipping at nearly 140 mph near its core, it created surges that hit all along the Florida peninsula’s Gulf Coast. Most weren’t deadly, but on Pinellas’ barrier islands, the water wall came from all directions.

Add it all up, and what its residents intuited is undeniable: Tampa Bay just had its worst hurricane in a century. In living memory, plenty of major hurricanes have threatened this region before decimating other places, and plenty of unassuming tropical storms punched above their weight.
