This is ridiculous!
I would surmise that the areas flooded by these tides are the areas filled in with the wreckage resulting from the 1906 earthquake. The bayshore areas around the City of San Francisco are all the result of fill dumped into the bay.
A similiar story for Astoria, Oregon. The original rivershore is now distant from the Columbia River. The City of Astoria (incorporated in 1812), experienced a fire and much of the wreckage was dumped along the river as fill.
US Hwy.30, where it passes through Astoria, Oregon, is built on that rivershore fill.

High tides, full moon, wet weather = flooding along the coastlines.
Every year I used to watch TV reporters ans reporterettes stand in the water and "BROADCAST LIVE" from the flooding along PCH in Huntington Beach, California. Locals would set on the deck at the West Bay Cafe and hoot at them...loudly.

Susan Schwartz already drives a Prius and has solar panels on her home. But the 69-year-old Berkeley woman still doesn’t think she’s doing enough to stop global warming.
Susan can’t can’t control the ocean tides with her solar panels and Prius? The Greenie god is failing her?
