Right now
The most recent data we hold from CO OPS arrived 15 minutes ago, and this point is not in it. We record detections, not passes: an absence is not proof that nothing is there.
2 other detections within 20 km in the last 24 hours, the nearest <1 km from here.
Reported by CO OPS today.
No stronger detection stands among the 37 recorded within 20 km of this point since 7 September 2026 — 6 others scored the same. The last comparable one was on 29 September 2026. 36 more were recorded here in the fortnight before it.
What the source measured
CO OPS reported: Water level 13.66 ft above the station datum at Virginia Key, Miami, FL, at or above NOAA's minor coastal flood threshold of 13.66 ft; +0.29 m against the predicted tide.
Urban PEI: 3,942,203 within a heuristic 50 km radius; not unique people.

Safety Information
During flooding: never walk, swim, or drive through floodwaters. Six inches of moving water can knock you down, and one foot of water can sweep away a vehicle. Move to higher ground if waters rise. After flooding, avoid contact with floodwater which may contain sewage, chemicals, or debris. Follow local emergency service guidance.
