Southern California’s coastline recently experienced notable flooding across Los Angeles and Orange counties, a development scientists have now linked to a specific ocean phenomenon.

King tides broke records along the Southern California coast this week, and forecasters say the next round, due Thanksgiving week, could push the water even higher. On Oct. 27, the tide gauge at San Pedro in Los Angeles Harbor reached about 8.18 feet, the highest since record keeping began there in 1923. Newport Beach hit 8.4 feet, and seawater shut down Pacific Coast Highway in Huntington Beach. There was no hurricane and no major storm. The ocean just came up.

El Niño pushes tides higher, causes flooding near local harbor

The Channel Islands Harbor reached what could be a record high tide this week, as a strengthening El Niño boosts sea levels along the Southern California coast. Ocean water crested a rock wall at the Oxnard-area harbor and washed over a stretch of Victoria Avenue. At its peak, the tide reached residential driveways across the road. The vast majority of the flooding came from seawater flowing backwards through the storm drain, officials said. While the water receded quickly, this week’s record-breaking tides throughout the region happened without any storm surge, big waves or King Tides. "If there was a storm right now, this would be much worse," said Michael Tripp, Ventura County's harbor director, standing near the water's edge on Oct. 27. The latest outlook from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration called a strong to very strong El Niño likely. The warmer waters near the equator tilt the odds for a wet winter in Southern California. That could mean not only above-normal rainfall but also high ocean waves and tides that can cause damage along the coast. El Niño conditions have pushed sea levels higher, on top of a marine heat wave that already gave them a boost. By
