Even when no rain is falling, you can continue to get rises among small streams and creeks.

A tide like that prevents the normal drainage from all the creeks and streams that normally drain into the bay. It's like a dam. You combine a 7-foot tide with 15- to 20-foot seas, and you can see why people are worried. Luckily, it's not a commute morning.

And when it rains on your parade, look up rather than down. Without the rain, there would be no rainbow.
