Lol. I don’t think you’re realizing anything. Say the storm stalls and has NO forward speed. Ok? With me here? It’s stationary, not moving, but the winds are spinning at 200 mph around the eye. Is there still a surge or wall of water somewhere if the storm stalls or even slows down to say 5mph right at landfall? Does the surge collapse? Many severe hurricanes in history have strengthened rapidly during a stall, such as Cat 5 Hurricane Camille for example. Another question, where does all that air spinning in towards the eye go when it reaches the eye? And why are there no or very few clouds in the eye? The winds spinning around the eye play a minimal role in a hurricane’s surge. The surge is almost totally dependent on the low barometric pressure. Hurricanes winds and forward speed play a minimal role in the surge, there are a couple of exceptions in the historical record, such as the 1938 Hurricane that hit New England and Long Island. I’ll give you that, but it’s rare.
