FISHERMEN and locals living along Klang’s coast heaved a sigh of relief as the high tide phenomenon at 6.06am yesterday occurred without any untoward incidents.

Klang District Fire and Rescue Department chief Hussin Ab Rahman said the tide rose to a maximum of 5.6m but waters along the coastal areas were much calmer and in most places, the waters did not breach the bunds as there was no rain as forecasted.
