Coastal Flood Watch Start End Monday, January 17, 5:00 AM EST Monday, January 17, 1:00 PM EST

 ...COASTAL FLOOD WATCH REMAINS IN EFFECT FROM LATE SUNDAY NIGHT THROUGH MONDAY AFTERNOON...


* WHAT...Two to three feet of inundation above ground level possible in vulnerable areas near the waterfront and shoreline.


* WHERE...In Connecticut, Southern Fairfield, Southern New London, Southern New Haven and Southern Middlesex Counties. In New York, Bronx, Southern Westchester, Northern Nassau, Northern Queens and Northwest Suffolk Counties.


* WHEN...From late Sunday night through Monday afternoon.


* COASTAL FLOOD IMPACTS...Widespread moderate to locally major flooding of vulnerable areas is possible near the waterfront and shoreline, including roads, parking lots, parks, lawns, and homes and businesses with basements near the waterfront. Several to numerous road closures are possible, and vehicles parked in vulnerable areas near the waterfront may become flooded. Flooding will also extend inland from the waterfront along tidal rivers and bays.


* SHORELINE IMPACTS...Breaking waves of 4 to 6 ft will result in beach erosion, wave splashover onto shoreline streets and properties, and minor damage possible to shorefront structures.


* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...There is potential for locally major flooding (3 ft above ground level) for southern Westchester and coastal southwestern Connecticut if strong easterly winds and high waves continue through the time of high tide Monday morning. The higher probability at this time is that winds weaken and shift to the south before high tide, which would reduce wave action and likely keep flooding at moderate flood levels (2 to 2 1/2 ft above ground). Things could change over the next 60 hours so please monitor subsequent forecasts through the weekend for the latest information.



PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...


If travel is required, allow extra time as some roads may be closed. Do not drive around barricades or through water of unknown depth. Take the necessary actions to protect flood-prone property.

Time of high total tides are approximate to the nearest hour.
