# Lynnhaven Shores king tides and high water in 2020

> In 2020, NOAA's Sewells Point tide gauge recorded water high enough for FloodRoute's model to put at least one Lynnhaven Shores road at risk on 14 days. The highest was 5.44 ft on Wednesday, April 1, 2020, 3.04 ft above the tide tables, with 11 roads at risk, including Dawn Avenue, Lynnhaven Drive and Cape Henry 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.
