# Bay Colony king tides and high water in 2016

> In 2016, NOAA's Sewells Point tide gauge recorded water high enough for FloodRoute's model to put at least one Bay Colony road at risk on 47 days. The highest was 6.14 ft on Saturday, September 3, 2016, 3.14 ft above the tide tables, with 1 road at risk, including South Bay Shore Drive.

**Estimates, not records of actual flooding.** Each day is NOAA's verified high water at the tide gauge, run through FloodRoute's flood model on today's roads and elevations, in dry weather. Drains, levees, tide gates, rain, road changes and elevation error all mean real conditions differed. Not for property, real-estate, insurance, lending, engineering or legal decisions.
