Coastal Flood — Coastal San Patricio County, TX

Nov 3, 2024

While tidal levels were predicted to barely touch 1.8-2.0 ft MSL, increasing winds helped increase wave heights. At the same time, we saw that 8 second periods were likely to reach the coastline. This resulted in greater chances for minor coastal flooding, leading us to keep a Coastal Flood Advisory in place through the next couple weeks following the 11/3/2024 event.
