A mix of astronomical king tides and a local nor’easter caused extensive coastal flooding. Viewers of First Coast News shared photos of the effects.

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. — Between Oct. 9-11, coastal flooding occurred on the First Coast from southeast Georgia to Flagler Beach, due to the combination of king tides and a nor’easter. Most regions experienced water levels 1-3 feet above normal, though at certain places like the Matanzas Inlet, gauge readings showed over 4 feet above normal high ground during high tide.

First Coast News Weather Watchers shared the conditions in their neighborhood showing where flooding was and how it impacted their community. 

One of areas that seen the most flooding was in St. Augustine. 

Flooding in Jacksonville

In Jacksonville, tidal flooding was observed downtown in low-lying areas, as well as near the coast at Jacksonville Beach. An image submitted shows water pooling west of the Dunes at high tide.


Beyond that in Nassau County at Fernandina Beach, several roads were closed as flood waters creeped into the coastal town.
