HIGHER THAN NORMAL TIDES EXPECTED – COASTAL FLOOD WARNING IN EFFECT
One to two feet of inundation above ground level is expected in low-lying areas near shorelines and tidal waterways.
The persistent Northeast winds, forecasted to continue over the next few days, are preventing bay levels from returning to their usual norms. Adding to the concern, a New Moon is slated for Friday, which sets the stage for a series of potentially impactful flooding events, commencing with tonight’s high tide at 6:45 PM.
Residents are advised to be aware that moderate flooding is expected, as the second high tide of each day through Saturday is anticipated to exceed normal levels.
Specifically, residents residing west of Third Avenue, are strongly encouraged to relocate their vehicles to higher ground, starting from Second Avenue and eastward.
