# Bay Island king tides and high water in 2022

> In 2022, NOAA's Sewells Point tide gauge recorded water high enough for FloodRoute's model to put at least one Bay Island road at risk on 34 days. The highest was 6.14 ft on Monday, January 3, 2022, 3.24 ft above the tide tables, with 12 roads at risk, including Wake Forest Street, Moss Road and English Cedar Circle.

**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.
