Coastal Flood Advisory issued October 29 at 3:10PM PDT until November 1 at 6:00PM PST 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 Sunday. * 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 02:39 PM Friday 10/30, 1.5 feet above normal (7.3 ft MLLW) at 03:44 PM on Saturday 10/31, and 1.0 ft above normal (6.8 ft MLLW) on Sunday 11/01 at 3:59 PM. These predictions include up to 1.5 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
Rob Hill Group Campground provides a unique urban camping experience in the Presidio of San Francisco, part of the Golden Gate National Recreation Area. Situated on the highest point in the Presidio at an elevation of approximately 380 feet, the campground offers sweeping views and immediate access to the park's extensive trail network. The four group campsites are named Colma, Ishmen, Ohlone, and Yunahia, each capable of hosting up to 30 campers with four designated parking spaces per site. Each campsite includes four picnic tables, a fire ring, a freestanding charcoal BBQ grill, and two lockable food storage boxes to protect against wildlife. The campground provides indoor ADA-compliant flush restrooms with running water, potable water faucets on the east and west sides, and separate receptacles for landfill, recycling, and compost. Two sites (Ishmen and Yunahia) feature raised tent pads accessible for wheelchair users, with a paved 200-foot wheelchair-accessible path connecting to the parking area. This is strictly a tent-only campground with no RV, pop-up, or vehicle camping permitted anywhere in the Presidio. Pets are prohibited except for ADA-defined service animals. Campfires are allowed in provided fire rings when there are no Spare the Air alerts or fire bans in effect, though campers must bring their own firewood as collection within the park is prohibited. Quiet hours are 10 PM to 6 AM.
