A coastal Flood Warning remains in effect until 10 am EST this morning.
While the high tide early Friday morning was likely the highest of the storm, moderate tidal flooding is expected again during the high tide cycle this morning. As a result, the coastal Flood Warning continues this morning. Despite the wind diminishing through today and the water levels gradually lowering, minor tidal flooding looks to occur during the next few subsequent high tides. Therefore a coastal Flood Advisory may be needed following this current warning.
For Sandy Hook, New Jersey, on the Bay Side... the high tide occurs at 526 am today with a forecast height of 7.5 to 8 feet MLLW.
For Seaside Heights, New Jersey, on the oceanfront... the high tide occurs at 456 am today with a forecast height around 7.5 feet MLLW.
