Flood risks rise on SF's Embarcadero

Unusually high tides are overflowing onto SF's Embarcadero, raising concerns about more severe flooding during winter storms. Why it matters: Higher sea levels combined with historic winter storms could flood waterfront roads, damage infrastructure, and disrupt low-lying neighborhoods, KQED reports . Catch up quick: On Oct. 25, high tides flooded the Embarcadero , cutting off parts of Pier 14 and closing sections of the sidewalk and bike lane despite calm weather. SF's average sea level reached 12.4 inches above NOAA predictions in October, the largest monthly difference on record. More extreme tides are expected around Thanksgiving and Christmas. How it works: Ocean and atmospheric conditions are raising coastal water levels even before winter storms arrive . El Niño-driven Kelvin waves are pulses of warm water that travel east across the Pacific before moving north along the West Coast, capable of raising coastal sea levels by 6 to 12 inches , per NOAA. This added rise can worsen flooding when combined with king tides, marine heat waves, and storm surges, according to KQED . Flashback: Past El Niño and winter storms show how quickly conditions can overwhelm the waterfront. In February 1998 , high winds, heavy rain, and elevated sea levels

Minor changes tomorrow, major changes by the weekend

Patchy fog and cool temperatures will kick off our Bay Area Tuesday with sunshine and unseasonably mild to warm temperatures for the afternoon. Highs are expected to climb 5 to 10 degrees above average, making for a pleasant stretch of weather through the middle of the week. Despite the sunshine, coastal concerns remain. A Coastal Flood Advisory continues for coastal communities through Tuesday afternoon, while bayside communities remain under an advisory through Friday. Elevated tides are increasing the risk of minor coastal flooding, especially during high tide. Residents in low-lying shoreline areas should be prepared for possible water inundation. Looking ahead, the quiet weather pattern is expected to change toward the end of the week. A storm system could bring a return of rain to the Bay Area by the weekend, with snow also expected in the Sierra. Forecast details are still coming into focus, but cooler, wetter weather appears to be on the horizon after our stretch of unusually warm conditions.

Warm SF weather this week to give way to heavy rain

San Francisco’s warm start to the week will give way to heavy rains and winds as a weakening Pacific Northwest storm is expected to descend upon the Bay Area this weekend. National Weather Service meteorologists said Monday that temperatures this week will hit highs in the low 70s before dropping on Friday into the low to mid 60s. Prior to landfall on Friday, this week’s storm system is also expected to bring sneaker waves, rip currents and breaking waves from 12 feet to 16 feet to San Francisco’s coastline . The ocean is more active and warmer this year compared to seasonal averages thanks to El Nino, a naturally recurring phenomenon in the Pacific that is predicted this year to peak in December and last through early 2027 . In addition to higher rainfall totals, San Francisco is expected to be at risk for coastal flooding and elevated sea levels through March. Throughout the upcoming storm season, city agencies said they will maintain street drains and other infrastructure to minimize local flooding risks. This week’s warm temperatures are preceding a weather pattern that is developing offshore and expected to begin moving closer to The City on Thursday, causing air to

Bay Area flood advisories extended as water levels shatter records

On a gray Saturday morning in Sausalito, a man in rubber boots stood at the edge of a parking lot and watched the bay refuse to give the pavement back. The water had peaked overnight, then stalled, leaving a thin sheet across curbs that usually stay dry even in winter storms. Similar scenes played out from the Embarcadero to shoreline parks in the East Bay, where puddles behaved less like leftovers from a storm and more like a tide that had forgotten its schedule. Officials responded by keeping Bay Area flood advisories in place through the weekend, a decision that surprised people who had expected the danger to ebb with the morning light. The extension was not a new emergency so much as an admission that retreat can be slower than arrival, and that a record does not end when the crest passes.
