King Tides

The water is so high that it almost reach the walkway of the Punggol Jetty.  It is quite interesting and look a little scary.  It is a preview of the global warming and sea level rise.  But King Tides is a natural phenomenon.  It occurs when the moon, sun and the earth are in alignment causing the gravitational pull to accentuate the tides.  Low tide will be extremely low this afternoon.  The high tide is at 11am today.
