California weather is ‘well into extreme territory’ with historic high tides
California's coasts experienced record-breaking high tides over several days this week that caused widespread flooding in homes, roads, and businesses. The exceptionally high tides affected both Southern California and the Bay Area, with coastal flood alerts issued and advisories extended as the dangerous conditions persisted. Communities in Southern California and Marin County saw seawater rush into streets and properties, breaking decades-old records for tide height. The flooding added to damage already caused by weeks of destructive waves along the coastline.
