Remember as a kid when you played in the bathtub and you would make waves? Remember how the water moved from one end of the tub to the other? In big open lakes, extreme wind events and Hurricanes can do the same thing...except we call it seiche. During #HurricaneIan, the extreme winds moved water from north to south causing storm-surge-like conditions in Lake Okeechobee with a delta of 9.5 Ft (North minus South)!!
