FOR TONIGHT INTO FRIDAY... WIDESPREAD MODERATE TIDAL FLOODING IS EXPECTED... WITH SOME SEVERE TIDAL FLOODING POSSIBLE IN PARTS OF SOUTHERN DELAWARE.

THE STRONG ONSHORE FLOW WILL NOT ALLOW WATER TO DRAIN FROM THE BACK BAYS OF NEW JERSEY AND DELAWARE DURING THE NEXT FEW TIDE CYCLES. MANY ROADWAYS WILL BECOME FLOODED.

Lil weather update....:leaving:

"The persistent onshore flow will also result in significant coastal flooding, beach erosion and building waves. The water rises combined with the high tides could reach historic levels of 5 to 8 feet, not felt in SE Virginia since the big nor'easters in January and February of 1998 and Isabel in 2003 on Thursday afternoon and again on Friday Morning.

You are urged to take precautions and get ready for serious flooding and coastal overwash, especially during high tides overnight through Friday.

Coastal flood watches and warnings extend from New Jersey southward to the Outer Banks of North Carolina and as far inland as the Potomac in D.C. and up the Delaware to Philadlephia. The high cycles, between 3 to 5 p.m. and 3 to 5 a.m. Thursday and Friday, will be the time of most concern for coastal flooding.

A peak water rise of 4 to 6 feet (locally higher) is expected from coastal Virginia to the northernmost North Carolina Outer Banks. This could put the water up to near 8 feet during high tides on Thursday Night and Friday Morning. This would move water into Hampton Roads and Norfolk areas in southeast Virginia. Need to plan accordingly and be ready for the worst. This could match the nor'easters that hit in January and February in 1998 and Hurricane Isabel in 2003 for water rise, especially during high tides.

Waves will be on the rise through Friday, peaking between 14 and 24 feet from the Del-Mar-Va to the northernmost Outer Banks. Areas from Southern New England to Long Island and coastal New Jersey will peak between 12 and 20 feet later Friday."
