SPECIAL WEATHER STATEMENT
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MOUNT HOLLY NJ
315 PM EDT THU SEP 5 2002

...SOME MINOR TIDAL FLOODING EXPECTED EARLY THIS EVENING...

THE COMBINATION OF SOME OF THE HIGHEST SPRING TIDES OF THE YEAR AND 
A NORTHEAST FLOW THIS EVENING IS EXPECTED TO PRODUCE POCKETS OF 
MINOR TIDAL FLOODING DURING THE HIGH TIDE CYCLE EARLY THIS EVENING. 

IF YOU LIVE IN AN AREA THAT IS PRONE TO TIDAL FLOODING...BE PREPARED
TO MOVE YOUR VEHICLE TO HIGHER GROUND...ESPECIALLY DURING HIGH TIDE.
DO NOT DRIVE ON ROUTES THAT ARE SUSCEPTIBLE TO MINOR TIDAL FLOODING 
THIS EVENING. DO NOT DRIVE AROUND BARRICADES.

UNUSUALLY HIGH SPRING TIDES WILL CONTINUE OVER THE NEXT COUPLE OF 
DAYS. WINDS ARE EXPECTED TO BECOME RATHER WEAK FRIDAY EVENING ALONG 
WITH HIGHER PRESSURE. THIS PATTERN SHOULD PERSIST THROUGH THE 
WEEKEND. IF SO...THE EVENING HIGH TIDES SHOULD PEAK JUST BELOW MINOR 
TIDAL FLOODING LEVELS. KEEP THIS IN MIND IF YOU ARE PLANNING A TRIP 
TO THE SHORE THIS WEEKEND.
 
STAY TUNED TO NOAA WEATHER RADIO AND OTHER LOCAL MEDIA FOR FURTHER
DETAILS OR UPDATES.
