Flooding continues to cause damage in several Southern California beach communities as another round of high tides is expected to create problems today. Roads in coastal cities, including Newport Beach and Huntington Beach, have been submerged, making travel difficult for drivers. The rising water has also flooded homes and businesses, with some properties taking on water after high tides overwhelmed barriers designed to keep the ocean out. The flooding comes as king tides bring unusually high water levels to the Southern California coast. The tides have already caused problems in several beachside neighborhoods, prompting concerns about additional flooding as the water rises again. Residents and business owners are being urged to remain alert and use caution around flooded streets. Drivers should avoid attempting to cross roads covered by water. The king tides are expected to continue through tomorrow, bringing the potential for more coastal flooding and disruptions in affected communities. Officials are monitoring conditions as the high tides persist.
