Heat Advisory For Saturday's World Cup Match In Santa Clara
The Heat Advisory for our East Bay Inland areas and Santa Clara Valley including San Jose has been extended to 7PM SATURDAY. This includes for the World Cup action in Santa Clara with a high of 88 degrees. A Coastal Advisory is in effect from 7 PM Saturday until 3 AM Tuesday and this is the interesting part... If you live or drive near the San Francisco Bay shoreline, you need to watch out for saltwater flooding on the roads over the next few days, especially during the late night hours. We are seeing a rare combination of a New Moon and the Moon making its closest approach to Earth. This cosmic pull, combined with warmer ocean water and rising sea levels, is creating a massive 'bulge' in the ocean. Tides will spike up to 2 feet higher than normal. While this isn't as severe as the major storms we saw back in January, it is on track to be the highest summer tide ever recorded in the Bay Area. Expect low-lying parking lots, docks and coastal roads to see minor flooding nightly through the middle of next week. A Beach Hazard Statement is in effect for 3 AM SUNDAY to 3 AM Wednesday. Another interesting fact...The waves will be only 4 to 6 feet, but don't let that fool you! These are not necessarily giant breakers, but a long period swell can pack tremendous energy, sending waves farther up the sand and creating dangerous rip currents. (Good story here!) (edited) Now, the forecast! Saturday: Inland Heat Advisory in effect with mid 90s expect. Coastal areas locked into a classic summer pattern with stubborn morning low clouds that clear by midday. Sunday (The Peak Flooding Night): A weak low-pressure system pushes further onshore, giving the natural air conditioning an extra boost. This will be the coolest day of the weekend. 92 in Livermore. However, Sunday night brings the absolute highest tide of this event, peaking at a near-record 1.9 to 2.0 feet above normal right around 11:10 PM.
