A magical day on Eval, North Uist. Back in 2018. A tidal burn at the start/end of this walk dictated timings. #tides #landscape #photography #hills #scotland

VIDEO 3: Just another slo-mo video of massive waves and cars I filmed with my iphone earlier today. Video 1’s a must see, as the waves were colossal even by local standards!

VIDEO 1: An epically high tide here today, and I tried three or four slo-mo videos of cars and waves. They’re pretty spectacular, and slo-mo works wonders!!
What's happened to the NOAA website?

Just as the water rises and falls with the tides, so does the ground. Terrestrial tides can move the Earth’s surface up to 55cm (22in) a day.

* WHAT: Minor coastal flooding expected.
* WHERE: San Francisco Bay Shoreline & North Bay Shoreline. #California
* IMPACTS: Flooding of lots, parks, and roads with only isolated road closures expected.
* ADDITIONAL DETAILS: Tidal levels are running up to 0.25 foot higher than tidal predictions. High tide will peak about 10:30 am (at SF station 9414290) Thursday, resulting in minor coastal flooding for low lying, flood-prone spots adjacent to the San Francisco Bay.
PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS: If travel is required, allow extra time as some roads may be closed. Do not drive around barricades or through water of unknown depth. Take the necessary actions to protect flood-prone property.

Not Thursday will be a #KingTide
The California King Tides Project helps us visualize future sea level by observing the highest tides of today. You can help by taking and sharing photos of the shoreline during King Tides to create a record of changes to our coast and estuaries.
Napa River is tidal up to Trancas Street. #Napa River's highest King Tide dates and times:
*Jan 11, Thu, 12:35 PM
*Jan 12, Fri, 1:24 PM
*Feb 9, Fri, 12:28 PM
COASTAL FLOOD ADVISORY,

* ADDITIONAL DETAILS: Tidal levels are running around 0.50 - 0.75 feet above tidal predictions. High tide will peak at 10:42 AM PST Wednesday morning at 6.66 feet, resulting in minor coastal flooding for low-lying, flood-prone spots adjacent to the San Francisco Bay.
PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...
If travel is required, allow extra time as some roads may be closed. Do not drive around barricades or through water of unknown depth. Take the necessary actions to protect flood-prone property.

You can find local King Tide times, learn how to upload your photos, browse previous King Tide photos, and find resources for educators on the California King Tides Project website. If you've been stuck inside for the last month, this weekend is a great time to get outside!
Coastal #FloodAdvisory
KING #TIDES WILL CAUSE MINOR COASTAL FLOODING FOR LOW LYING AREAS THRU SUNDAY AFTERNOON.
The highest astronomical tides of the year, referred to as the King Tides, impact the coast & Bay shoreline from Jan 19th thru the 23rd & historically resulted in localized flooding of specific low areas. Lowest low tides of the event will be observed during the early evening hours which may lead to trouble for mariners navigating shallow waterways.
