Major Flooding Expected in South Florida Through Tuesday
US · Published Oct 26, 2026
• South Florida is under a coastal flood warning through Tuesday, with major flooding expected during high tides, particularly on Monday and Tuesday mornings.
• A strong northeast wind, with gusts reaching up to 40 mph, is pushing water against the coast and preventing drainage in intercoastal and bay areas.

Impact & Risks

The combination of high tides, strong winds, and the full moon is expected to cause significant coastal flooding along South Florida's east coast. Flood-prone areas, particularly near the Atlantic coast, are at the highest risk. The flooding could disrupt travel, especially during high-tide periods, which are expected around 9 a.m. and 9 p.m. on Monday and 10 a.m. and 10 p.m. on Tuesday. Rough surf and high seas will persist throughout the week, posing additional risks for marine activities.
