SFWMD is continuing efforts for the monitoring, operational response and documentation of these events. These weekly updates are intended to be informational for interested stakeholders and the public. This is the final weekly forecast period of the 2024 King Tide season. If conditions warrant, additional updates may be issued.

High tides are predicted by the National Oceanographic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) to peak above 2.5-3 feet Mean Lower Low Water (MLLW) along the South Florida Coast on the following days during the remainder of the 2024 King Tide season (peak varies by location):

• November 13-18 (Full 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.
