  expected in low-lying areas near shorelines and tidal
  waterways.

* WHERE...In Delaware, Kent. In New Jersey, Cumberland.

* WHEN...From 8 PM this evening to 4 AM EDT Saturday.

* IMPACTS...At this 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
  today combined with the higher astronomical tides will result
  in moderate coastal flooding with tonight`s high tide. The

  greatest impacts with this stretch of coastal flooding, and
