Local 10 News Weather Forecast: September 22nd Afternoon Edition

King Tides and Potential Flooding

• 👑 The current period features king tides, though they are associated with a new moon, making them less severe than full moon king tides.
• ⚠️ While current water levels may be higher than average, the king tides from October 5th-12th and early November are identified as periods to watch for higher water.
• 💧 Heavy rain during high tide can lead to freshwater flooding due to saturated drainage systems and reduced drainage efficiency.

Today and Tomorrow's Weather

• 🌦️ There is a 50% chance of showers and thunderstorms today, with potential for localized flooding due to already saturated ground from weekend rain.
• ☔ Tomorrow's forecast also includes a 60% chance of rain, with the possibility of heavy downpours in affected areas.
• 📍 Rainfall is expected to be spotty and hit-or-miss, meaning not everyone will experience the rain.

• 🔥 High temperatures are predicted to be close to 90°F and will remain elevated throughout the week.
• 📈 Temperatures are running warmer than average for this time of year.
• 📉 Rain chances are expected to decrease to 30-40% by next weekend.
