Expected
Effective:
July 15, 2026 - 3:38am
Expires:

Description:
* WHAT...Up to 1.5 ft of inundation above ground level is

* WHERE...Bayshore locations along the San Francisco and San
Pablo Bays.
* WHEN...Until 4 AM PDT Thursday.
* IMPACTS...Flooding of lots, parks, and roads with only

* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...At the San Francisco tidal gauge, high tide
is expected to be 1.5 ft above normal (7.3 ft MLLW) at 12:48 AM

roughly 3-6 inches of additional water mainly from a combination

90 minutes earlier or later along the Pacific Coast and through
the San Francisco Bay, respectively.
Instruction:
If travel is required, allow extra time as some roads may be
closed. Do not drive around barricades or through water of
unknown depth. Take the necessary actions to protect flood-prone
property.
