The National Weather Service in Charleston said some of the flooding ranked among the top 10 king tide flooding events since records began. The South Carolina Department of Health and Environmental Control predicted six weeks of above average tides this year which can cause significant flooding especially when combined with high on-shore winds. The NWS says king tides are always high in this region during the Fall months. But the king tides last weekend were especially notable. For example, on November 16th, the MMLW (Mean of Lower Low Water) high tide in Charleston was 8.25 ft. That was the 21st highest on record. There were additionally higher than normal tides on November 14th at 8.08 feet. Major flooding begins in Charleston at 8. 0 ft. In Georgia, Fort Pulaski’s MLLW high tide of 10.25 ft on November 14th was the 9th highest on record and on November 16th it was 10.17 ft which was the 13th highest on record. Moderate flooding begins at 10.0 ft at Fort Pulaski with major flooding South Carolina King Tides InitiativeSouth Carolina Department of Environmental Services (SCDES) is leading the South Carolina King Tides initiative to document the effect that extreme tide events have on our state’s beaches, coastal waterways, private property and public infrastructure. add_to_photosKing Tide Photo What is a King Tide?The term King Tide is a non-scientific term often used to describe exceptionally high tides. Higher than normal tides typically occur during a new or full moon and when the Moon is at perigee, or during specific seasons around the country. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), develops annual astronomical tide predictions (which take into account the gravitational pull of the moon and sun on Earth’s oceans) at over 200 locations in South Carolina. Water levels may, however, exceed predicted heights due to precipitation, onshore winds, and other short-term meteorological events. The effects of individual King Tides may vary considerably. King Tides may result in coastal erosion, flooding of low-lying areas, and road closures which may disrupt normal daily routines. This is particularly true when a King King TidesKing Tides are especially high tide events when there is alignment of the gravitational pull between the sun and moon.The term "King Tide" is a non-scientific term and describes Perigean Spring Tides, which are the highest seasonal tides that occur each year. These tides occur when the moon is either new or full and is closest to the earth in its monthly orbit. These especially high tides can cause or worsen coastal flooding. Understanding King TidesIn order to understand Perigean Spring Tides, you first have to know that the gravitational pull of the moon and the sun cause tides. Tides are actually long-period waves that roll around the planet as the ocean is 'pulled' back and forth as the moon and the sun interact with the Earth in their monthly and yearly orbits. The next thing you need to know is that the moon follows an elliptical path around the Earth in its monthly orbit, and the Earth follows an elliptical path in its yearly orbit around the sun. This means that, at times, the moon and the sun are closer to Earth. At other times, they are farther away. Gravitational PullWhat happens when the moon and the sun are close |
