...MINOR TIDAL FLOODING NOW LOOKING UNLIKELY ALONG THE OCEAN
FRONT...ALONG THE LOWER DELAWARE BAY...IN RARITAN BAY...AND ACROSS 
THE NORTHEASTERN CHESAPEAKE BAY...

...MINOR TIDAL FLOODING REMAINS POSSIBLE ACROSS THE LOWER DELAWARE 
RIVER AND UPPER DELAWARE BAY...

A DRY COLD FRONT WILL DROP SOUTH OF THE REGION THIS AFTERNOON. THE 
COMBINATION OF EXAGGERATED ASTRONOMICAL TIDES ASSOCIATED WITH THE 
RECENT NEW MOON AND AN ONSHORE FLOW THROUGH TONIGHT WILL CONTINUE TO 
CAUSE ABOVE NORMAL TIDAL ANOMALIES. 

LATEST COMPUTER GUIDANCE NOW SUGGESTS THAT TIDAL ANOMALIES WILL RUN 
ABOUT ONE HALF TO ONE FOOT ABOVE NORMAL THROUGH TONIGHT. GREATER 
ANOMALIES ARE NEEDED IN MANY SPOTS TO PRODUCE MINOR TIDAL FLOODING.
THUS, IT IS LOOKING MORE UNLIKELY THAT TIDAL FLOODING WILL DEVELOP. 
THE EXCEPTIONS ARE ACROSS THE LOWER DELAWARE RIVER AND UPPER 
DELAWARE BAY, WHERE ONE FOOT ANOMALIES COULD STILL PRODUCE MINOR 
TIDAL FLOODING AT THE TIMES OF HIGH TIDE. HIGH TIDES IN THIS AREA 
WILL OCCUR DURING THE AFTERNOON HOURS AND TOWARD DAYBREAK ON TUESDAY.

PLEASE KEEP IN MIND THAT ANY FLOODING THAT DOES OCCUR WILL BE MINOR. 
HOWEVER, RESIDENTS AND VISITORS ALONG THE LOWER DELAWARE RIVERSIDE, 
SHOULD BE AWARE OF THE POSSIBILITY OF TIDAL FLOODING THROUGH MONDAY 
NIGHT.
