This will again be an issue Sunday morning, though the forecast tide level is forecast to be closer to 10 feet. If the forecast of 10.5' verifies, this would be a Top 10 crest at Fort Pulaski. The full Beaver Moon, a supermoon, is leading to these higher-than-normal tides. The Beaver Moon will also be the last supermoon of 2024, rising on Nov. 15. Earlier in the week, a strong onshore wind led to a high tide of 10.25 feet, which was high enough to close Highway 80 temporarily.
