SPECIAL WEATHER STATEMENT
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MOUNT HOLLY NJ
403 AM EST MON NOV 24 2003



...MINOR TIDAL FLOODING IS POSSIBLE ALONG THE NEW JERSEY AND 
DELAWARE OCEANFRONT THIS MORNING...

A STORM WELL OUT TO SEA CONTINUES TO PRODUCE LONG PERIOD EASTERLY 
SWELLS WITH TIDES RUNNING 1/2 TO 1 FOOT ABOVE NORMAL. THIS... 
COMBINED WITH HIGH ASTRONOMICAL TIDES...MAY PRODUCE A FEW AREAS OF 
MINOR TIDAL FLOODING ALONG THE NEW JERSEY AND DELAWARE OCEANFRONT 
THIS MORNING AROUND THE TIMES OF HIGH TIDE.

ALONG THE OCEANFRONT...HIGH TIDE IS GENERALLY FROM 700 AM TO 830 AM. 
SINCE WIND SPEEDS ARE LOW...GENERALLY AROUND 10 MILES AN HOUR OR 
LESS...WAVE ACTION IS NOT A FACTOR AND ANY FLOODING IS NOT EXPECTED 
TO BE WIDESPREAD.

AS A COLD FRONT MOVES THROUGH THE AREA THIS EVENING, WINDS WILL 
SWITCH AROUND TO AN OFFSHORE DIRECTION. SINCE THE THE MORNING HIGH 
TIDE IS THE HIGHER OF THE TWO DAILY HIGH TIDES TODAY, THE 
COMBINATION OF CHANGING WINDS AND LOWER HIGH TIDES THIS EVENING 
SHOULD ALLEVIATE THE THREAT OF ANY MINOR TIDAL FLOODING AFTER THIS 
MORNING.
