...HIGH SURF ADVISORY REMAINS IN EFFECT UNTIL 8 PM EDT TUESDAY...

AS HURRICANE FLORENCE PASSES WELL EAST OF THE ATLANTIC SEABOARD
TODAY THROUGH TUESDAY, THE STORM WILL CONTINUE TO PRODUCE LARGE
SWELLS, WHICH IN TURN WILL CAUSE HIGH SURF ALONG THE COAST. THE
HIGH SURF CONDITIONS HAVE ALREADY ARRIVED ALONG NEW JERSEY AND
DELAWARE COASTS AS OF EARLY THIS MORNING AND IT SHOULD CONTINUE TO
INCREASE THROUGH TONIGHT. THESE HIGH SURF CONDITIONS WILL REMAIN
FAIRLY STEADY TONIGHT INTO TUESDAY WITH AVERAGE WAVES HEIGHTS
REACHING 7 TO 10 FEET. A HIGH RISK OF RIP CURRENTS WILL BE OVER
THE AREA TODAY AND TONIGHT. 

A TIGHT PRESSURE GRADIENT BETWEEN HIGH PRESSURE OVER SOUTHEAST
CANADA AND THE LARGE CIRCULATION OF FLORENCE WILL CAUSE BRISK
NORTHEAST WINDS THROUGH TUESDAY WITH WIND GUSTS TO AROUND 25 KTS
AT TIMES. THE GREATEST EFFECTS FROM THE WINDS AND SEAS WILL BE
FELT IN THE INLETS ALONG THE COAST AND IN THE MOUTH OF DELAWARE
BAY. 

SPOTTY MINOR TIDAL FLOODING IS POSSIBLE TODAY AND MAY BECOME MORE
WIDESPREAD ON TUESDAY. THE HIGHER OF THE TWO DAILY HIGH TIDES
OCCURS ALONG THE SHORE AREAS OF NEW JERSEY AND DELAWARE BETWEEN 11
AM AND NOON TODAY WITH HIGH TIDE OCCURRING A FEW HOURS LATER IN
THE BACK BAYS. THESE HIGH TIDES ON TUESDAY WILL OCCUR AROUND 1
HOUR LATER THAN TODAYS. IF YOU LIVE IN AN AREA THAT NORMALLY
EXPERIENCES TIDAL FLOODING, PAY ATTENTION TO FURTHER STATEMENTS
THE NEXT FEW DAYS.

A HIGH SURF ADVISORY MEANS THAT HIGH SURF WILL AFFECT BEACHES IN
THE ADVISORY AREA, PRODUCING STRONG RIP CURRENTS AND LOCALIZED
BEACH EROSION. DANGEROUS AND POTENTIALLY LIFE THREATENING
CONDITIONS EXIST FOR ALL PEOPLE ENTERING THE SURF.
