Coastal Flooding Predictions for February 2024
This month NOAA is predicting “likely” high-tide flooding only for Hilo Bay / Kuhio Bay, Hawaii! Otherwise the Northeast, Mid-Atlantic, West Coast, and Hawaii are indicated for potential flooding in the 2nd week of February. Surprisingly NOAA is not predicting any locations in the Southeast will experience high tide flooding this month. (Whew, as they see more than enough of it!) Just a reminder: high-tide flooding predictions do not account for real-time wind and weather conditions which may cause flooding outside of predicted windows.
QUICK LINKS to possible flood days by region: Northeast, Mid-Atlantic, Gulf Coast, Pacific Coast, Hawaii
About these Predictions: “These flooding likelihoods are derived from a probabilistic model that incorporates tide predictions, sea level rise trends, and seasonal changes in coastal sea level to predict the potential that a higher than normal high tide may exceed established National Ocean Service flood thresholds. During these periods, high tide flooding may occur in flood-prone areas.” NOAA
