Coastal Flooding Advisory for Humboldt Bay Today

According to the National Weather Service in Eureka’s Facebook post,

High astronomical tides will cause minor flooding in low lying areas around Humboldt Bay. Up to a half of foot of saltwater inundation of ground level is possible in low lying areas near shorelines and tidal waterways. Areas typically impacted by coastal flooding include King Salmon, Jackson Ranch Road, and other low-lying areas around Humboldt Bay. Flooding may occur an hour or two before and after high tide is reached.

Remember, driving through saltwater can damage your vehicle. You can find tide information at: http://tidesandcurrents.noaa.gov/map/.
