Unique #FlumeFriday event at our COB wave tank: first real waves in the tank! COB staff enjoys a first sneak preview on the installed capabilities of the wavemaker during an excellent training session by the Van Halteren Technologies team. @ResearchUGent: that tastes like more…

I've been capturing video from this webcam in Fort Myers all day and I've put it into a Timelapse. Check out the storm surge rushing in! Crazy. #Ian #flwx

[Max Olson @MesoMax919]

Absolutely heartbreaking footage captured by our surge probe of catastrophic storm surge washing away homes. I have never seen anything like this. We have now left the area as hoards of emergency crew have arrived. #HurricaneIan
