easing through tonight. Wave run up expected during the peak
high tide during the afternoon. A combination of surf and high
water levels could produce nuisance coastal flooding.

* IMPACTS...Flooding of beaches that are normally dry, minor
coastal erosion, and saltwater inundation. Moderate. Strong
breaking waves and strong currents will make swimming

Avoid driving through flooded roadways. If you are forced to
drive through salt water, be sure to rinse your vehicle with
fresh water. Move electronics, vehicles or other valuables to
