    Coastal Flood Advisory - 4:02am Mon Oct 19 2026

    ...COASTAL FLOOD ADVISORY REMAINS IN EFFECT FROM 3 PM TO 9 PM EDT TUESDAY...

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

    WHERE: Ocean, Atlantic, Cape May, Atlantic Coastal Cape May,
    Coastal Atlantic, Coastal Ocean and Southeastern Burlington.

    WHEN: From 3 PM to 9 PM EDT Tuesday.

    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.

    ADDITIONAL DETAILS: Additional elevated high tide cycles
    beyond Tuesday evening are expected with additional coastal
    flood hazards likely being needed.

    PRECAUTIONARY / PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS:

    A Coastal Flood Advisory means that minor tidal flooding is

    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.
