Advisory

Coastal Flood Warning until 11:00AM Saturday

* WHAT...One to two feet of inundation above ground level expected in low-lying areas near shorelines and tidal waterways.

* WHERE...Ocean, Coastal Ocean and Southeastern Burlington.

* WHEN...From 3 AM to 11 AM EST Saturday.

* IMPACTS...At this level, widespread roadway flooding occurs in coastal and bayside communities and along inland tidal waterways. Many roads become impassable. Some damage to vulnerable structures may begin to occur.

* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...Widespread moderate tidal flooding is expected, especially along Barnegat Bay. There is potential for some tidal gauges to reach major flood stage along Barnegat Bay. A prevailing southwest to west wind after the astronomical high tide occurs could prevent water from draining out of Barnegat Bay, which may lead to minor or moderate tidal flooding lingering into Saturday afternoon or evening.

* AFFECTED AREAS: OCEAN ... COASTAL OCEAN ... SOUTHEASTERN BURLINGTON

Instructions:

Take the necessary actions to protect flood-prone property. If travel is required, do not drive around barricades or through water of unknown depth.
