...LOCALIZED MINOR TIDAL FLOODING POSSIBLE ONCE AGAIN THIS EVENING 
AND MONDAY MORNING...

TIDE HEIGHTS AT THE TIMES OF HIGH TIDE THIS EVENING AND MONDAY 
MORNING WILL ONCE AGAIN APPROACH LEVELS OF MINOR TIDAL FLOODING. 
THIS EVENING'S TIDE WILL BE MORE CRITICAL THAN MONDAY MORNING'S, 
SINCE IT IS SLIGHTLY HIGHER ASTRONOMICALLY. DRAINAGE OF ADJACENT 
BACK BAYS AND THE DELAWARE AND RARITAN BAYS WILL CONTINUE TO BE 
INHIBITED SOMEWHAT BY THE CONTINUED NORTH TO NORTHEAST FLOW. THIS 
FLOW IS EXPECTED TO PERSIST FOR THE NEXT FEW DAYS, ALTHOUGH IT WILL 
GRADUALLY WEAKEN, AS THE LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM RESPONSIBLE FOR THIS 
WEATHER PATTERN MOVES SLOWLY FURTHER AWAY FROM THE REGION. WATER 
LEVELS WILL REMAIN ABOVE NORMAL THROUGH MONDAY MORNING, ONCE AGAIN 
BRINGING THE POSSIBILITY OF LOCALIZED MINOR TIDAL FLOODING AROUND 
THE TIMES OF HIGH TIDE.

LARGE LONG PERIOD SWELLS ROLLING ONTO THE BEACHES WILL BRING A 
CONTINUING THREAT OF BEACH EROSION TONIGHT INTO MONDAY.

DO NOT LEAVE YOUR VEHICLE IN A LOCATION THAT IS PRONE TO TIDAL 
FLOODING. ALSO, DO NOT DRIVE THROUGH ANY 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 TONIGHT AND MONDAY 
MORNING, PAY SPECIAL ATTENTION TO ANY ADDITIONAL NATIONAL WEATHER 
SERVICE FORECASTS AND STATEMENTS.
