Model results for Run 180. This model is one of five consistent with the historical observations, at Denham of water level above 3 m mean sea level and consistent with the observed inundation of between 2.1 m (7 ft) and 3.05 m (10 ft) over land. The model also reproduces the extremely high storm surges at Useless Loop (Site IV) and at landfall north of Tamala Station (Site III).
