Powell was able to address the numbers in both Collier and Lee counties.

She said the coastal tide gauge stations at Naples and Fort Myers reached major flood stage and the peak surge did surpass levels seen during Helene:

5.08 feet at Naples (Helene peaked at 4.02 feet)
5.26 feet at Ft Myers (Helene peaked at 5.12 feet; the record here is 7.3 feet)
