    Weather Alerts
    Coastal Flood Advisory - 3:23pm Sun Sep 6 2026

    ...COASTAL FLOOD ADVISORY REMAINS IN EFFECT UNTIL 9 PM EDT THIS EVENING...

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

    WHERE: Cumberland, Atlantic, Cape May, Atlantic Coastal Cape
    May and Coastal Atlantic.

    WHEN: Until 9 PM EDT this evening.

    IMPACTS: At this level, flooding begins on the most
    vulnerable roads in coastal and bayside communities, and along
    inland tidal waterways. Some partial or full road closures are
    possible.

    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.
