Alert

A powerful storm will bring flooding and high winds, today into tomorrow!

The National Weather Service (NWS) has issued a Flood Watch, Coastal Flood Advisory, and High Wind Watch for our area due to an approaching powerful storm. The likelihood of tidal flooding is significant if residents want to relocate their vehicles to higher ground. Willis Jones First Aid Park on E. Cape May Ave, situated between Asbury and Wildwood Ave, is available for parking.

In addition to the elevated risk of tidal flooding, there is a substantial chance of power outages due to the high winds. If you experience a power outage, please promptly report it by calling 1-888-LIGHTSS (1-888-544-4877). In case of downed power lines, dial 911 immediately for assistance.

For further updates and information, you can visit the Ocean Gate Emergency Management and Police Facebook Page or follow them on Instagram at Ocengatepd. The most severe conditions of the storm are anticipated between 6 pm and 2 am, bringing heavy rain and gusts of up to 60 mph. Stay informed and take necessary precautions during this period.
