will not cause a strong surge onto land.

As a Lake Erie northerner, my only experience with hurricanes has been 1) heavy rains and flash flooding from the ones that move up the Atlantic coast, 2) high winds and Lake Erie shore flooding from Hurricane Sandy, 3) tornadoes in western NY this July from remnants of Hurricane Beryl.

Maybe I'd include a cyclone bomb blizzard in Cleveland (January 1978) that had hurricane strength winds and another cyclone bomb blizzard in Buffalo and western NY in December, 2022.

I had never before heard of the "reverse surge" from hurricanes.
