A new round of king tides — higher-than-usual oceanic tides, caused by the moon’s alignment with the Earth — arrived Friday, coinciding with a set of storms that started to drop rain earlier in the week and won’t stop until Monday afternoon, according to the National Weather Service.

Pebble Beach is looking a little worse for the wear after recent storms that have pummeled the California coast.

Forecasters say wet weather will continue soak the Bay Area on Monday as a cold front moves through, bringing steady rain, a risk of minor flooding, and large uncertainty over rainfall totals outside the North Bay. The heaviest rain targets the North Bay, where showers start as early as 2 a.m. and continue on and off through the day.

The Clatsop and Tillamook Coast, and the South Washington Coast could see minor flooding during high tides in low-lying areas near bays, sloughs, and the lower stretches of coastal rivers, with water levels reaching up to one foot above ground level, the NWS said.

A coastal flood warning was downgraded to an advisory at 2 p.m. It will be in effect until Sunday at 2 p.m. The NWS said there is expected to be significant coastal flooding due to high astronomical tides and storm surge.

Near San Francisco’s Crissy Field, king tides caused floodwaters to rise to 2.56 feet on Saturday, according to Kennedy — the highest they’ve been since 1998. “This is near record for the San Francisco Bay Area,” Kennedy told SFGATE by phone.
