This morning’s high tide, 12.9 feet at 7:48 am, was the peak of the “king tides” for this month, so we went to Alki (above) and Don Armeni (below) for a look. No extra factors pushing the water over the wall THIS time (unlike last December):

Next month, though, the January tides have a higher peak, 13.3 feet on the 4th and 5th. P.S. If you photograph the king tides, as explained here earlier this week, the state Ecology Department would like to see your photos.
