This is what king tides & El Nino looks like in California
The drop is just behind the homes. AccuWeather's aerial footage opens over Pacifica, where eroded coastal cliffs leave residential buildings close to the edge, before moving to streets submerged by tidal flooding.
The Short has drawn about 190,000 views in ten hours, an unusually fast start for the channel. Its comment section is also far busier than a typical full first day, with viewers discussing the cliffside homes and questioning what floodwater could mean for roads and bridges.
Rather than staying with a single flooded neighborhood, the compilation brings together footage from several stretches of California's coast. In Marin County, water covers a broad intersection beside a highway. In Huntington Beach, cars splash along the flooded northbound Pacific Coast Highway, with the road surface hidden beneath them.
The final overhead shot returns to Marin County. Two kayakers paddle down a flooded street, using boats where cars would ordinarily travel.
