SPECIAL WEATHER STATEMENT - MINOR TIDAL FLOODING
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MOUNT HOLLY NJ
400 AM EST SUN JAN 16 2005

...MINOR TIDAL FLOODING IS POSSIBLE AROUND THE TIME OF HIGH TIDE 
TONIGHT AND EARLY MONDAY MORNING...

A NORTHEAST FLOW CIRCULATING AROUND DEVELOPING LOW PRESSURE MOVING 
NORTHEAST JUST OFF THE EAST COAST TONIGHT WILL CAUSE TIDES TO BE 1 
OR 2 FEET ABOVE NORMAL. THIS MAY CAUSE MINOR TIDAL FLOODING AROUND 
THE TIME OF HIGH TIDE LATER TONIGHT. MINOR TIDAL FLOODING IS MOST 
LIKELY ALONG THE NEW JERSEY OCEAN FRONT AND BACK BAYS, SINCE HIGH 
TIDES ARE NORMALLY HIGHER OVER THESE AREAS THAN SLIGHTLY FURTHER 
SOUTH OVER DELAWARE AT THIS TIME. 

HIGH TIDE ON THE OCEAN FRONT IS FROM ABOUT 1230 AM TO 200 AM EARLY 
MONDAY MORNING, WITH HIGH TIDE ON THE BACK BAYS ABOUT AN HOUR OR TWO 
LATER.

MOTORISTS SHOULD BE AWARE THAT MINOR TIDAL FLOODING IS POSSIBLE 
TONIGHT, AND BE ALERT FOR WATER ON SHORE ROADS THAT ARE PRONE TO 
FLOODING. BE SURE TO MOVE ANY VEHICLES AWAY FROM FLOOD-PRONE AREAS.
