Coastal Flood Advisory until 06:00PM Sunday
* WHAT...Up to one foot of inundation above ground level expected in low-lying areas near shorelines and tidal waterways.
* WHERE...In New Jersey, Gloucester, Camden and Northwestern Burlington. In Pennsylvania, Delaware, Philadelphia and Lower Bucks.
* WHEN...From noon to 6 PM EST Sunday.
* IMPACTS...At this level, flooding begins on the most vulnerable roads along tidal waterways. Some partial or full road closures are possible.
* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...Minor coastal flooding will continue to occur around the times of the afternoon high tides through Tuesday. A strong coastal storm bringing widespread rainfall will lead to increased fresh water runoff on Tuesday. This may lead to elevated water levels, especially along tidal river tributaries. Thus, there is a possibility of localized moderate coastal flooding impacts in some areas along the tidal Delaware River with the Tuesday afternoon high tide.
* AFFECTED AREAS: GLOUCESTER ... CAMDEN ... NORTHWESTERN BURLINGTON ... DELAWARE ... PHILADELPHIA ... LOWER BUCKS
Instructions:
If travel is required, allow extra time as some roads may be closed. Do not drive around barricades or through water of unknown depth. Take the necessary actions to protect flood-prone property.
