Moon’s wobble will bring 9 years of tidal flooding — NASA

The video discusses how the Moon's 18.6-year cycle affects high tide floods, also known as nuisance floods, by amplifying or suppressing tides. Currently, the Moon is in a phase that amplifies tides, but this has not significantly increased high tides along most US coastlines. However, by the mid-2030s, the combination of the Moon's cycle and ongoing global sea level rise is expected to result in more severe high tide floods.
