THE GREATEST EFFECTS FROM THE WINDS AND SEAS WILL BE FELT IN THE 
INLETS ALONG THE COAST AND IN THE MOUTH OF DELAWARE BAY.

WHEN MINOR TIDAL FLOODING IS POSSIBLE. THE HIGHER OF THE TWO DAILY 
HIGH TIDES OCCURS ALONG THE SHORE AREAS BETWEEN 10 AM AND NOON ON 
MONDAY WITH HIGH TIDE OCCURRING A FEW HOURS LATER IN THE BACK BAYS.
