The National Oceanographic and Atmospheric Administration predicts high tides will peak along South Florida's coast during the following days (peaks vary by location). During these periods, high tides will approach the National Weather Service (NWS) "Minor Flooding" threshold.

  • September 6-12 (Full Moon)
  • September 19-25 (New Moon)
  • October 3-25 (Full and New Moon)
  • November 1-10 ((Full Moon)
  • November 18-20 (New Moon)

To help guide water management decisions, SFWMD launched a weekly Tidal Outlook Forecast, published every Monday, to report conditions - such as wind strength and direction, ocean currents - that can cause tides to occur higher or lower than predicted at certain locations. Automated king tide forecasts are now available on the SFWMD's Resilience Metrics Hub for seven tidal stations along South Florida's east and west coasts: Virginia Key, Port Everglades, Lake Worth, Key West, Vaca Key, Naples/Naples Bay North, Fort Myers.
