Coastal flooding is possible this week, warmer weather ahead

SAVANNAH, Ga. (WTOC) -Happy Monday!

Our work and school week is starting out on a dry note with temperatures in the 50s this morning. It’ll be quiet for most of us, but we are watching the morning high tide.

Monday’s high tide is expected to be the highest of this coastal flooding event. The forecast is for a 9.8′ tide to occur at Fort Pulaski between 8-9 AM. Any time the tide gets near 10 feet, water could get onto Highway 80.
