High Tide Flooding, also known as nuisance flooding or sunny day flooding and is coastal flooding that occurs at high tide and interrupts day to day activities leading to a public inconvenience such as road closures, and overwhelmed storm drains. Community members upload their high tide flooding images to the Maryland MyCoast portal. Images are used to visualize the impacts of flood events; to enhance awareness among decision-makers and residents of Maryland and to encourage action to reduce flood risks.
