Coastal Flood Advisory issued December 19 at 1:44AM EST until December 19 at 11:00AM EST by NWS Upton NY
* WHAT...Up to 1 1/2 foot of inundation above ground level
expected in vulnerable areas near the waterfront and shoreline.
* WHERE...In New Jersey, Hudson, Eastern Essex and Eastern Union
Counties. In New York, Richmond (Staten Island) and Kings
(Brooklyn) Counties.
* WHEN...From 6 AM to 11 AM EST this morning.
* COASTAL FLOOD IMPACTS...Minor flooding is expected in the most
vulnerable locations near the waterfront and shoreline. Expect
up to 1 1/2 ft of inundation above ground level in low lying,
vulnerable areas. Some roads and low lying property including
parking lots, parks, lawns and homes/businesses with basements
near the waterfront will experience shallow flooding.
* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...Heavy rain during the time of high tide
may exacerbate flood impacts. This forecast is leaned towards
a higher end flood impact scenario, to account for slower
trend in cold frontal passage and potential coincidence with
heavy rain.
If travel is required, allow extra time as some roads may be
closed. Do not drive around barricades or through water of
unknown depth. Take the necessary actions to protect flood-prone
property.
