... Coastal Flood Watch remains in effect from late tonight
through late Thursday night...

A coastal Flood Watch remains in effect from late tonight through
late Thursday night.

With high pressure to our north and low pressure remaining to our
south, a strong and persistent northeast flow is expected along
the coasts of New Jersey and Delaware into the weekend. As a
result, tidal departures will increase. Minor tidal flooding is
likely beginning late tonight and moderate tidal flooding is
possible by week's end.

On Thursday and Friday, high tide on the New Jersey and Delaware
oceanfront occurs in the early morning hours, between 300 am and
500 am, and in the late afternoon, between 315 PM and 515 PM.
High tide on the back bays and along Delaware Bay occurs a little
later than it does on the oceanfront.

Minor tidal flooding is expected for the high tide cycles early
on Thursday morning and late on Thursday afternoon. However, as
tidal departures increase some moderate tidal flooding is
possible during the high tide early on Friday morning. At that
time, tide levels may reach or exceed 7.0 feet MLLW at Atlantic
City, New Jersey and at Lewes, Delaware. Tide levels may reach or
exceed 7.7 feet MLLW at Cape May, New Jersey.

The potential for tidal flooding will continue into the early
part of the weekend.

Precautionary/preparedness actions...

A coastal Flood Watch means that conditions are favorable for the
development of flooding. Pay close attention to statements,
advisories and warnings, and take action, if necessary.

Do not park your vehicle in a location that is prone to tidal
flooding. Also, avoid roadways that are prone to tidal flooding.
