If I see it correct on that map, 10-12ft surge is expected at FL southern tip. Less in other places.

So... back to Baja ;)...
In Central Baja after the strongest quake (for this area), magnitude 7.5, in Midrif, ~60 years ago, the height of tsunami was ~10ft in Baja and across the sea in Kino. Very little damage. Though, tsunami was a single short-lasting event, and there was not much infrastructure to damage.

Why Irma turned north:

Taking Her Turn


It was noted early this a.m. that the NHC model of five days back forecast accurately the track taken into the Keys and up the coast.
