...SPOTTY MINOR TIDAL FLOODING POSSIBLE DURING THE AFTERNOON AND 
EARLY EVENING TODAY AND SATURDAY...

TIDES AT TIMES OF HIGH TIDE LATE THIS AFTERNOON WERE EXPECTED TO 
REACH BETWEEN FIVE AND ONE HALF AND SIX AND ONE HALF FEET ABOVE MEAN 
LOWER LOW WATER ALONG THE COASTLINE.  THESE LEVELS INDICATE THAT 
SPOTTY MINOR TIDAL FLOODING WOULD OCCUR.  DRAINAGE OF ADJACENT BACK 
BAYS AND THE DELAWARE AND RARITAN BAYS WAS STILL BEING INHIBITED 
SOMEWHAT BY THE CONTINUED NORTHEAST FLOW, SO SOME MINOR TIDAL 
FLOODING IS POSSIBLE AT THOSE LOCATIONS THIS EVENING.

THE NORTHEAST FLOW IS EXPECTED TO MAINTAIN ITSELF INTO SATURDAY, SO 
THE POSSIBILITY OF MINOR TIDAL FLOODING DURING THE SATURDAY LATE 
AFTERNOON AND EVENING HIGH TIDES STILL EXISTS. 

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.

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.
