The wider storm

Perigean spring tides that occurred with the full moon led widespread minor to moderate flooding at high tides along the east coast of South Florida during early October. Flooding impacts were exacerbated by strong easterly flow and occasional periods of heavy rainfall. Flooding of numerous streets, parks, and docks along the coast, canals, and intracoastal waterways was reported. Additional tidal flooding also occurred along the Gulf coast at times.
