High Tides Throughout the Holiday Season

Rising sea levels caused high tides on the Washington coast this past week, with more to come in February.

This region experienced extreme high tides starting the 30th of December and lasting until Jan 4th, which will return again in early February. The WA State Dept of Ecology is asking people to take pictures of the Washington shorelines during these tides, so that they can document the impacts of higher sea levels.  Check your local tide table for details, and read the Department of Ecology's blog for more information.
