Tides are predicted by NOAA at the closest monitoring site in Virginia Key. King tide flooding in Miami-Dade was predicted for Aug. 30 to Sept. 2, the season peak Sept. 27 to Oct. 3, Oct. 15-16 ...
Tide tables, sometimes called tide charts, are used for tidal prediction and show the daily times and levels of high and low tides, usually for a particular location. [1] Tide heights at intermediate times (between high and low water) can be approximated by using the rule of twelfths or more accurately calculated by using a published tidal ...
The king tide is the highest predicted high tide of the year at a coastal location. It is above the highest water level reached at high tide on an average day. When is a king tide?
The number of high tide floods at Miami’s Virginia Key has been all over the map since NOAA started keeping track of them. In 2018, zero flood days were reported. In 2019, there were nine, a record.

The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (abbreviated as NOAA / ˈ n oʊ. ə / NOH-ə) is an American scientific and regulatory agency charged with forecasting weather, monitoring oceanic and atmospheric conditions, charting the seas, conducting deep-sea exploration, and managing fishing and protection of marine mammals and endangered species in the US exclusive economic zone.
Tidal range is the difference in height between high tide and low tide. Tides are the rise and fall of sea levels caused by gravitational forces exerted by the Moon and Sun, by Earth's rotation and by centrifugal force caused by Earth's progression around the Earth-Moon barycenter. Tidal range depends on time and location.
Tidal flooding, also known as sunny day flooding [1] or nuisance flooding, [2] is the temporary inundation of low-lying areas, especially streets, during exceptionally high tide events, such as at full and new moons. The highest tides of the year may be known as the king tide, with the month varying by location. These kinds of floods tend not ...
