[quote=Anonymous][quote]We are close enough to the mouth of the Potomac that water levels are influenced by tides/storm surges from the Chesapeake Bay/Atlantic Ocean. So sometimes the flooding is from rain in the Potomac River basin, sometimes it is higher water levels from the coast.[/quote] This. There is a reason the area near the Jefferson Memorial is called the tidal basin. The tides do impact the DC area because it is a tidal area. Low and influenced by ocean.[/quote]
