Roads start to flood when the tide at NOAA's Virginia Key station passes about 2.5 ft (MLLW). Higher tides flood more streets, for longer. FloodRoute marks flooding as possible when the water is less than 0.5 ft above a road's low point, likely up to 1.5 ft, and severe at 1.5 ft or more.

Thu, Oct 22 at 6:36 AM EDT: a 2.5 ft high tide predicted at NOAA's Virginia Key station. FloodRoute calls a high tide a king tide when it is more than 0.7 ft above the station's mean higher high water (MHHW).

It's an estimate built from NOAA tide predictions for the Virginia Key station, corrected with live readings from the NOAA Virginia Key gauge, and the measured elevation of every road segment in Miami. Wind, storm surge and blocked drains can change what actually floods. Never drive through flood water.
