A coastal Flood Advisory remains in effect until 11 am EST this
morning.
Minor coastal flooding is expected along east facing coastlines
around the time of high tide this morning. This area includes
Gloucester... Scituate... Chatham and Nantucket.
Substantial beach erosion can also be expected.
Strong northeast winds and seas as high as 15 feet offshore will
produce a storm surge of 1.0 to 1.5 feet. Large waves on top of this
surge will be able to break over seawalls and other coastal barriers
creating minor coastal flooding.
High tide this morning occurs between 8 and 9 am... except between 9
and 10 am on much of Cape Cod and Nantucket and 5 am at Woods Hole.
Do not attempt to drive through any flooded roadways and follow the
advice of local officials.
Precautionary/preparedness actions...
A coastal Flood Advisory is issued for minor coastal flooding of
the most vulnerable shore roads and/or basements due to the
height of storm tide or wave splashover. The majority of roads
remain passable with only isolated closures. There is no
significant threat to life and any impact on property is minimal.
All tide heights are relative to mean lower low water.
Time of high total tides are approximate to the nearest hour.
