Record high tides could flood San Francisco's Great Highway
Original: High tides expected to reach record levels in San Francisco this winter could bring seawater all the way up to the Great
Forecasters expect this winter's king tides in San Francisco to reach record levels, with seawater potentially pushing all the way up to the Great Highway along Ocean Beach. The San Francisco Chronicle reports the extreme high tides, amplified by El Niño conditions, could cause coastal flooding and strain the city's shoreline infrastructure along the Pacific coast.
Why now: Concern about coastal flooding and climate impacts is rising as an unusually strong king tide season approaches.
