King Tides - Eric1600 - 05-25-2017
The National Weather Service reported that unusually high tides, also known as “king tides,” may cause intermittent coastal flooding along all shores of the Hawai#699;i Island from today through the holiday weekend.
Officials say that beach flooding and standing water on roadways and low-lying coastal areas are possible, especially during the afternoon high tides each day.
In conjunction with the unusually high tide, an incoming large south swell is expected to build on Friday and will continue through the Memorial Day weekend.

According to scientists we should expect more of these floods in Hawaii, and with increasing regularity:
After a high tide in April broke a 112-year record... record tide(s) are now predicted for May 25-27, as well as June 23-24 and July 21-22, Mark Merrifield, a University of Hawaii oceanographer, said in a Monday phone interview.
As much as 45 percent of the floodwater height during the April event was attributable to sea level rise driven by global warming, depending on the yearly baseline used, Merrifield said.
Merrifield said his modeling predicts similar water levels occurring four times per year by 2030, 25 times yearly by 2050, and potentially 100 times or more yearly by 2070.

Now when he was a young man,
He never thought he'd see
People stand in line to see the tide king.
(King Tide) How'd you get so funky?
(Funky Tide) Did you do the monkey?
Born in gravitation,
Moving the hydration (King Tide).
(King tide) Now, if I'd known
They'd line up just to see 'em,
I'd trade in all my money
And bought a tide museum. (King Tide)
Buried a wet donkey (Funky Tide)
He's my favorite honky!
Born in gravitation,
Moving the hydration (King Tide)
Pushing back the Nile, (Disco Tide)
The mermaids love his style, (Waltzing Tide)
Rockin' a wet mile (Rockin' Tide)
Salt water crocodile.
He gave his life for the ebb and flow.
Liquid idol!
He's Causing Erosion!
They're sellin' you.
Now, when I die,
Don't want to go to hell,
Don't want no fancy funeral,
Just want one giant swell. (king Tide)
He coulda won a Grammy,
Buried in wet jammies,
Born in gravitation, moving the hydration,
He was born in gravitation, drowning causes obfuscation,
King Tide

The King Tides are back, starting today and through the weekend. From Civil Defense:
This is a Civil Defense message. This is an Extreme High Tides Message for Thursday, June 22.
The National Weather Service reports unusually high tides, also known as "King Tides", may cause dangerous flooding conditions along all shores of Hawaii Island from today through the weekend before gradually subsiding next week.
