The elevated tides pose a risk to oceanfront homes along the Peninsula in Long Beach, particularly between 62nd and 69th places. While the breakwater and Catalina Island absorb much of the wave energy, sections of sand berms have already been breached, requiring urgent repairs. Officials note that the tides are slightly lower than previous events this summer, which did not result in property damage or injuries. However, the frequency of high tides due to climate change remains a concern, as they continue to flood streets and erode sand walls.
