West 12th Road Tidal Flooding at 7:30 am |
This morning's 7:30am high tide was scheduled at 5.5 feet but the storm surge started pushing water onto the block at 4:45 am earlier this morning.
When the tide crested, the bay end of W12th Road was inundated with over 2 feet of water and the tide had run all the way up the block just short of Cross Bay Boulevard.
Our total tidal departure from the astronomical height was in excess of 3 feet!
Right now the wind has shifted, coming from the north at 17mph but still gusting to 30ph, so hopefully this will recede faster that it came in earlier today.
Ugh.
