Higher than normal tides caused coastal flooding along portions of coastal Miami-Dade County. A new moon phase allowed tides to run about 0.5 to 1 inch above predicted levels. These levels along with the small northeast swells lead to some minor coastal flooding along the east coast of Miami-Dade during the high tide cycles.
