Coastal Flood Advisory issued October 28 at 1:46PM PDT until October 31 at 6:00PM PDT by NWS San Francisco CA
* WHAT...Up to 1.9 ft of inundation above ground level is possible in low-lying areas near shorelines and tidal waterways. * WHERE...Bay Shoreline locations of San Pablo Bay, San Francisco Bay, and Monterey Bay. * WHEN...Until 6 PM PDT Saturday. * IMPACTS...High tides will result in flooding of low-lying infrastructure, isolated road closures, and coastal erosion. Rising tides will bring water and waves farther up the beach than normal, restricting escape from beaches and coastal areas. More substantial impacts are expected along bayshore Marin County where increased flooding is anticipated across low lying areas. * ADDITIONAL DETAILS...At the San Francisco tidal gauge, high tide is expected to be 1.9 ft above normal (7.7 ft MLLW) at 01:43 PM Thursday 10/29, 1.6 ft above normal (7.4 ft MLLW) at 02:39 PM Friday 10/30, and 1.1 feet above normal (6.9 ft MLLW) at 03:44 PM on Saturday 10/31. These predictions include up to 1.2 ft of surge that will enhance the astronomical tide and flooding threat. High tide varies up to 90 minutes earlier or later along the Pacific Coast and through the San Francisco Bay, respectively.
About
Anthony Chabot Campground occupies a forested hillside in the East Bay Regional Park District, tucked into eucalyptus groves approximately 1.5 miles above Lake Chabot. The 75-site campground serves as a convenient nature escape for Bay Area residents, sitting only 35 minutes from downtown Oakland and Oakland International Airport. The campground offers three camping styles: 12 RV/trailer sites with full hookups (water, sewer, and 30-amp electric), 53 drive-up tent sites, and 10 hike-in tent-only sites for those seeking a quieter experience. All sites include a picnic table and fire ring with grill. Facilities include hot showers, flush toilets, and a dump station. Firewood and charcoal are available for purchase on-site. An amphitheater hosts seasonal campfire programs. From the campground, visitors can access an extensive trail network for hiking and mountain biking. Lake Chabot offers fishing opportunities (permit required). Dogs are permitted on leash for a $2 per night fee. The campground gate locks at 10pm and reopens at 8am; quiet hours run from 10pm to 5am.
