## extract

Coastal Flood Watch — Eastern Essex; Suffolk; Eastern Norfolk; Eastern Plymouth; Barnstable; Dukes; Nantucket
Severity: Moderate. Certainty: Possible.
* WHAT...Up to one foot of inundation above ground level
possible in low-lying areas near shorelines and tidal
waterways (3.7 to 12.9 feet Mean Lower Low Water).

* WHERE...Eastern Essex, Suffolk, Eastern Norfolk, Eastern
Plymouth, Barnstable, Dukes and Nantucket Counties.

* WHEN...From Friday afternoon through Saturday afternoon.

* IMPACTS...Roads remain passable. Low lying areas and roads
near Nantucket Harbor, including Easy Street, may experience
pockets of shallow flooding less than one foot deep.

* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...The exact timing for an approaching
coastal low pressure remains uncertain. That will become
important for peak surge around the times of high tides.
Multiple tide cycles will be impacted, which combined with
strong onshore flow may result in tides not lowering as well.
Beach erosion will also be a concern, mainly for east-facing
beaches.
