...MINOR TIDAL FLOODING IS POSSIBLE AROUND TIMES OF HIGH TIDE THIS
EVENING AND SATURDAY MORNING...

HIGH ASTRONOMICAL TIDES MAY COMBINE WITH A GRADUALLY STRENGTHENING
EASTERLY FLOW TO CAUSE SPOTTY MINOR TIDAL FLOODING THIS EVENING. THE
FLOW IS EXPECTED TO STRENGTHEN FURTHER TONIGHT, BUT SINCE THE LOWER
OF THE TWO ASTRONOMICAL HIGH TIDES WILL OCCUR SATURDAY MORNING ONLY
MINOR TIDAL FLOODING IS POSSIBLE THEN AS WELL. MINOR TIDAL FLOODING
IS SOMEWHAT MORE LIKELY IN THE MORE VULNERABLE AREAS OF THE BACK
BAYS. ALSO, RAIN IS EXPECTED TONIGHT AND IF IT BECOMES HEAVY PRIOR
TO THE ARRIVAL OF THE SATURDAY MORNING HIGH TIDE IT WILL CAUSE SOME
ADDITIONAL PONDING ON SOME ROADWAYS.

HIGH TIDES ON THE OCEAN FRONT GENERALLY WILL OCCUR BETWEEN 930 AND
1030 PM FRIDAY AND BETWEEN 1000 AM AND 1100 AM SATURDAY. FLOODING
TENDS TO OCCUR LATER IN BACK BAYS THAN ALONG THE COAST. 

RESIDENTS IN THE MOST PRONE AREAS MAY WANT TO MOVE THEIR CARS TO
HIGHER GROUND PRIOR TO THE TIMES OF HIGH TIDE.
