    ...COASTAL FLOOD ADVISORY REMAINS IN EFFECT FROM 6 PM TO 10 PM EDT THIS EVENING...

    WHAT: Up to one half foot of inundation above ground level
    expected in low-lying areas near shorelines and tidal
    waterways.

    WHERE: In Delaware, New Castle. In New Jersey, Salem.

    WHEN: From 6 PM to 10 PM EDT this evening.

    IMPACTS: At this level, flooding begins on the most
    vulnerable roads along tidal waterways. Some partial or full

    ADDITIONAL DETAILS: Additional elevated high tide cycles
    beyond this evening are expected.

    PRECAUTIONARY / PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS:

    A Coastal Flood Advisory means that minor tidal flooding is
    expected. Minor tidal flooding often results in some road
    closures. Usually, the most vulnerable roadways will flood.

    Do not leave your vehicle at a location that is prone to tidal
    flooding. Do not drive your vehicle through flood waters. The
    water may be deeper than you think it is. You will be putting
    yourself in danger and your vehicle may be damaged, leading to
    costly repairs.

    Visit the National Water Prediction Service at
    https://water.noaa.gov/wfo/phi for additional water level and
    flood impact information for your local tide gauge.
