REGION — King Tides expected today may cause additional coastal flooding, especially with chances of showers extending through the weekend, the city of San Diego warned this week.
King Tides, providing the year’s highest high tides and lowest low tides, are occurring Thursday and Friday and could flood beaches, the city of San Diego warned.
“The city is taking steps to prepare for more wet weather and help residents stay safe,” officials said in a statement. “In addition to the rain, high tides known as King Tides are expected to hit the region Friday through Sunday. While the city takes steps to prevent flooding, San Diegans are also urged to plan ahead.”
Residents can report storm-related issues, such as flooding and downed trees, via the Get It Done app or by calling 619-527-7500 or 911 for a life-threatening emergency.
