A reliable numerical model for predicting such flooding was developed for the 2013 Typhoon Haiyan.

Flow velocities in downtown Tacloban reached up to 7 m/s due to flow contraction along the high-density blocks of houses

Water levels reached their maximum peak in just 10 min.

Only 8% of the length of streets in downtown Tacloban were within the safe limits according to velocity–depth criteria.

Pedestrian evacuation in the middle of a storm surge generated by a strong typhoon was confirmed as high-risk behavior.
