...MINOR TIDAL FLOODING POSSIBLE TUESDAY MORNING...

THE COMBINATION OF A SOUTH TO SOUTHEAST FLOW BLOWING UP THE
CHESAPEAKE BAY AND RECENT HEAVY RAINFALL HAVE CAUSED THE WATER
LEVELS IN THE CHESAPEAKE BAY TO RISE TO ABOVE NORMAL LEVELS.
RECENT READINGS INDICATE THAT THE TIDAL DEPARTURES ARE RUNNING
BETWEEN 1.0 AND 1.5 FEET ABOVE MEAN LOWER LOW WATER.

THE CONTINUATION OF THE CURRENT PATTERN WOULD BRING WATER LEVELS
CLOSE TO 3.5 FT MEAN LOWER LOW WATER ALONG THE EASTERN SHORE OF
THE CHESAPEAKE TUESDAY MORNING. THE HIGH TIDE AT CAMBRIDGE WILL BE
AROUND 700 AM, AT TOLCHESTER IS WILL BE AROUND 900 AM AND FURTHEST
NORTH AT CHESAPEAKE CITY, IT WILL ARRIVE SHORTLY AFTER NOON ON
TUESDAY.

IF YOU LIVE IN AN AREA THAT RECEIVES TIDAL FLOODING, TAKE
PRECAUTIONS THIS AFTERNOON OR EVENING TO PROTECT YOUR PROPERTY.
