[/quote] These high tides and storm surges are going on everywhere. There is a storm rolling in but places all over have had these King Tides and Storm Surges. California. Florida. Hawaii. Pakistan. Veitnam. Cambodia. and on and on the list grows. In live in Southwestern BC and the Snow finally arrived and now won't quit. I have had a foot accumulate in the last 3 days where I am at. Snowed 2 more inches overnight and were supposed to get another 5-6 inches in the next 24-36hrs. The snow will make the Ski Hill behind me happy as there has been no snow up till now only alot of unseasonal rain and warmer weather. They should have opened in early November but couldn't. I guess they will get a few runs going now. ( SilverStar ) [/quote]
Original Message
Flooding alert has been issued for Flooding all the way into Delta. A storm surge with waves up to or over 3 meters is expected in the area Sunday. Monday. Tuesday. First they called it high tide King Tide. Now they are calling it Storm Surge. Ocean Specialist said the waves could even be higher with the storm surge. All things being considered the wall of water could surge up to 15 feet.
Area crews are sandbagging everywhere and closeing all beach access points. Residence can also get sandbags if in effected area's. River Delta's and Drainage area's.
There sure has been alot of KING TIDES and High Tides and Storm Surges without the storms to really accompany them.
See how fast as this drains.
