Severity: Minor. Certainty: Likely.
* WHAT...For the High Surf Advisory, large breaking waves of 6 to
12 feet in the surf zone. For the High Rip Current Risk,
dangerous rip currents. 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...Atlantic Coastal Cape May, Coastal Atlantic and
Coastal Ocean.

the High Rip Current Risk, through Friday afternoon. For the

* 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. Dangerous swimming
and surfing conditions and localized beach erosion. Rip
currents can sweep even the best swimmers away from shore into
deeper water.
