...COASTAL FLOOD ADVISORY REMAINS IN EFFECT FROM 8 PM THIS
EVENING TO 2 AM EDT FRIDAY...
...COASTAL FLOOD WARNING IN EFFECT FROM 8 PM FRIDAY TO 4 AM EDT
SATURDAY...

* WHAT...For the Coastal Flood Advisory, up to one foot of
  inundation above ground level expected in low-lying areas near
  shorelines and tidal waterways. For the Coastal Flood Warning,
  one to two feet of inundation above ground level expected in
  low- lying areas near shorelines and tidal waterways.

* WHERE...In Delaware, Inland Sussex and Delaware Beaches. In
  New Jersey, Cape May and Atlantic Coastal Cape May.

* WHEN...For the Coastal Flood Advisory, from 8 PM this evening
  to 2 AM EDT Friday. For the Coastal Flood Warning, from 8 PM
  Friday to 4 AM EDT Saturday.

* IMPACTS...At the moderate coastal flood level, widespread
  roadway flooding occurs in coastal and bayside communities and
  along inland tidal waterways. Many roads become impassable. Some
  damage to vulnerable structures may begin to occur.

* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...Increasing onshore flow during the day on
  Friday combined with the higher astronomical tides will increase
  the potential for moderate coastal flooding with the Friday
  night high tide. The Friday night high tide is forecast to have
  the highest water levels and greatest impacts with this stretch
  of coastal flooding, and high tide water levels will lower over
  the weekend.

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

Take the necessary actions to protect flood-prone property. If
travel is required, do not drive around barricades or through
water of unknown depth.
