Day 1: 2026-09-29

Category 2

WHAT A routine tide combined with near-normal pressure is keeping conditions benign. No flooding is expected, and overall risk remains minimal.

WHEN Highest water levels are around 7:42 AM and 6:48 PM.

IMPACTS • No impact anticipated.

REASONING The moderate astronomical tide was the primary factor, with a small boost from near-normal pressure. Wind contributed very little, and ensemble members all concur on Category 2.

Day 2: 2026-09-30

Category 2

WHAT Slightly lower astronomical tide than the previous day and above-normal pressure continue to indicate no flood risk. Conditions stay routine.

WHEN Peak water levels occur near 8:36 AM and 7:24 PM.

IMPACTS • No impact anticipated.

REASONING The moderate tide was again the main factor, partially offset by higher-than-average pressure, and wind influence was minimal. Ensemble forecasts agree on Category 2 with no outlier scenarios.

Day 3: 2026-10-01

Category 1

WHAT Lower astronomical tide and near-normal pressure lead to very calm conditions with no flooding risk.

WHEN High tides arrive close to 9:36 AM and 8:06 PM.

IMPACTS • No impact anticipated.

REASONING The tide is relatively modest, and the slightly above-normal pressure adds no extra risk. These conditions are similar to the 2026-07-04 Category 1 event.
