Editing Coastal Flood Advisory (section)

=== What Causes Coastal Flooding? ===
Several factors contribute to coastal flooding, including:

# '''High Tides''': The most common cause of coastal flooding is the occurrence of high tides, especially when they coincide with other conditions like strong winds or storms. Coastal areas are more vulnerable during spring tides (when the gravitational pull of the sun and moon is at its strongest).
# '''Storm Surges''': These are rises in sea level caused by the winds and low pressure associated with storms, particularly hurricanes or tropical storms. The storm surge can push seawater inland, leading to flooding even in areas that are typically safe.
# '''Heavy Rainfall''': Excessive rainfall can cause rivers or drainage systems to overflow, contributing to flooding in coastal regions. In some instances, heavy rain can coincide with high tides, making the flooding more intense.
# '''Coastal Erosion''': Over time, coastal erosion can lower the height of the land, making certain regions more susceptible to flooding during high tide events.
# '''Climate Change''': Rising sea levels due to global warming have made many coastal areas more prone to frequent and severe flooding. As sea levels rise, the likelihood of coastal flooding increases, particularly in low-lying areas.
