...MINOR TIDAL FLOODING IS POSSIBLE ON WEDNESDAY...THURSDAY AND 
FRIDAY...

LOW PRESSURE IS FORECAST TO DEVELOP OVER NORTH CAROLINA TONIGHT AND 
IT SHOULD DRIFT OFF OF THE COAST ON WEDNESDAY.  THE LOW IS EXPECTED 
TO INTENSIFY AS IT MOVES SLOWLY OUT TO SEA ON THURSDAY AND FRIDAY.

EAST TO NORTHEAST WINDS HAD ALREADY BECOME ESTABLISHED ALONG THE 
COASTS OF NEW JERSEY AND DELAWARE THIS AFTERNOON.  THE DEVELOPING 
AREA OF LOW PRESSURE WILL MAINTAIN A BRISK ONSHORE WIND FOR THE 
BALANCE OF THE WEEK.  AS A RESULT, MINOR TIDAL FLOODING IS EXPECTED 
AROUND THE TIMES OF HIGH TIDE ON WEDNESDAY, THURSDAY AND FRIDAY.

ALONG THE OCEANFRONT HIGH TIDE OCCURS DURING THE LATE NIGHT AND 
DURING THE AFTERNOON HOURS ON WEDNESDAY, THURSDAY AND FRIDAY.  THE 
HIGHER OF THE TWO DAILY HIGH TIDES WILL BE THE ONE THAT OCCURS IN 
THE AFTERNOON.

DO NOT LEAVE YOUR VEHICLE IN A LOCATION THAT IS PRONE TO TIDAL 
FLOODING.  ALSO, DO NOT DRIVE THROUGH FLOOD WATERS, THE WATER MAY BE 
DEEPER THAN YOU THINK IT IS.

THE AREA OF LOW PRESSURE AND THE RESULTING ONSHORE WINDS WILL CREATE 
A POUNDING SURF ALONG THE COASTS OF NEW JERSEY AND DELAWARE WITH 
SOME BEACH EROSION LIKELY.

IF YOU LIVE ALONG THE COAST OF NEW JERSEY OR DELAWARE OR IF YOU 
WILL BE VISITING EITHER OF THOSE LOCATIONS DURING THE COMING DAYS 
PAY SPECIAL ATTENTION TO WEATHER FORECASTS AND STATEMENTS.

YOU CAN ACCESS TIDE DATA ON THE INTERNET AT STORMS.NOS.NOAA.GOV (ALL 
IN LOWER CASE).  YOU CAN FIND TIDAL FLOODING IMPACT TABLES AT
