Winter Storms Bring Coastal Flooding to San Diego, California Beaches?

We restore storm damage 24/7 in San Diego.

Our local San Diego City, South West team has been restoring storm damage for residents and businesses for years. Winter storms often bring rain and high tides to San Diego, raising the risk of coastal flooding. During king tides, which occur periodically, waves surge higher than normal and, when combined with heavy rain, can create flooding hazards for beach communities. These floods can damage infrastructure, erode shorelines, and flood homes and businesses near the coast.

Being prepared for coastal flooding means following flood warnings issued by local authorities.

If you live near the coast, consider using sandbags to divert water from your property.

Moving valuable items to higher ground and reinforcing doors and windows can help reduce the risk of water intrusion during a storm. Parking vehicles on elevated ground is also wise to prevent flood damage.

Winter storms and king tides create a unique challenge for Southern California’s beaches, but being prepared and taking preventive measures can help residents avoid significant losses. Pay attention to weather forecasts and high tide schedules to prepare when winter storms bring the unexpected!
