A coastal flood advisory is in effect until 1 p.m. as those high astronomical tides continue along the coast for the next several days.
Known as the “King Tides,” Eureka office of the National Weather Service expects the water levels peak “between 9.2 and 9.4 feet” at the North Spit. The city of Arcata is asking for the public’s help in documenting 15 specific sites in the city, but welcomes other photos of the event. Find out more about the project and how to help here.

Meanwhile, most sunny skies are in the forecast for the rest of the week after the drenching rains that spoiled any chance of seeing the “Super Blood Wolf” moon on Sunday and the only lunar eclipse of 2019. Read previous coverage of the celestial phenomenon here.
