In my area, the answer would be: wind driven water.

Not so sure about your area, but I would put it on the "suspect list".
 
No it's not wind driven... Winds have been all over th place, some westerly, some easterly, and mostly light if not dead at night and early morning which would not affect tide level
 
It has been the same on the Chesapeake for over a week now. We even had blow-out winds (from the north, 20-25 knots) sustained for days but the tides remained high. Local NWS had to manually adjust the models. Spooky!
 
It is all a plot. The proactive wing of the "man is ruining the environment" movement has surreptitiously been adding mass to the dark side of the moon. This makes sea levels higher and supports the theory that the glaciers are melting.

The polar caps have melted. They have not told anyone to prevent panic.
 
Good article

What s odd is that it s been lasting two weeks now and that even teh low tides are higher than normal. I thought super moons and other astronomical events only lasted for a few days...

Local politicians are beating the drums of global warming as Miami beach is flooding almost daily calling for more funding...
 
Supermoon followed by hurricane/storm followed by approaching new moon.
