🚨 South Florida King Tide Flooding Just Got WORSE | Record 11 Days Underwater, Ferraris in Seawater

Описание: This fall, without a single hurricane, South Florida went through the longest stretch of tidal flooding ever recorded. From October 22 to November 1, 2026, the Virginia Key tide gauge in Miami reached moderate flood levels 11 days in a row, two of them at major flood level. That breaks the old record, and 2026 now has at least 15 moderate flood days compared with the previous record of 10 in 2019. Four of the highest water levels measured there since 1994 all came this October.

The flooding stretched from Jacksonville to Key West. In West Palm Beach, the Intracoastal spilled onto Flagler Drive, leaving a Corvette and a Lamborghini sitting in seawater, and a Ferrari was spotted in salt water near the Lantana Bridge. A1A closed in Lantana and Manalapan, Briny Breezes flooded up to its mobile homes, and the surf chewed into Juno Beach. In Fort Lauderdale, the Las Olas bridge closed, and in Miami Beach the ocean broke over the seawall onto Collins Avenue. In the Keys, Key West reached about 2.4 feet above normal high tide, and Stillwright Point in Key Largo flooded again for weeks.

In this video, we go through the record streak, the perfect setup behind it (full moon, perigee, the fall sea level high, strong northeast winds and Josephine offshore), the whole east coast from Palm Beach County to Fort Lauderdale, Miami Beach and the Florida Keys, how people live by the tide table, the beaches, why every year gets worse, what the cities are doing, and the next king tides over Thanksgiving week.

The next king tides arrive November 23 to 26. With any onshore wind, another streak of moderate flooding is likely.
