King Tides returned to the region in on the 15th and 16th of the month. High tide at San Francisco reached 6.9 feet above sea level Sunday morning. Minor roadway flooding was observed in Sausalito. These high tides also brought rough seas to the coast. A person fell into the surf near Sutro Baths and drowned. Rough ocean conditions and the unusually high tide made for difficult search conditions.
