The Coastal Star will be photographing the King Tides in October/November and sharing photographs from our coastal communities.
As you see flooding in your neighborhood, we hope you'll share your photos as well.
Please send to news@thecoastalstar.com.
We will update this gallery as photos are received.
King tides is the nonscientific term for the highest tides of the year, according to the NOAA website. The king tides will occur again at 8:41 a.m. Nov. 5 and 9:32 a.m. Nov. 6.
