9/11 25th Anniversary Ceremony of Remembrance

On Friday, September 11, the City of St. Augustine and St. Augustine Fire Department will gather to honor and remember those who lost their lives in the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001.

This year’s Ceremony of Remembrance returns to the Plaza de la Constitución, where the City’s first remembrance ceremony was held in 2002.

The ceremony begins at 8:30 a.m., with a moment of silence at 8:45 a.m. It will include the presentation of colors, an invocation, remarks from retired FDNY Captain Chris Garaizar, the traditional “Striking the Four 5’s,” and “Amazing Grace” performed by bagpipes and drums.

As we mark 25 years, our community comes together to reflect, remember, and honor the courage and resilience shown in the face of tragedy.

It’s almost that time of year when our community experiences King Tides, a recurring seasonal occurrence that can bring higher-than-normal water levels and potential nuisance flooding to low-lying areas.

Periods of higher water levels are anticipated around the following dates:

September 9–10
September 27–30
October 9–13
October 25–30
November 7–9
November 23–27

As in previous years, weather conditions such as nor’easters, strong winds, and heavy rainfall can increase water levels and flooding impacts.

Residents, businesses, and visitors are encouraged to monitor local weather conditions and use the Hohonu Dashboard for predicted water levels and timing:
