A High Surf Advisory means that high surf will affect beaches in the advisory area...producing localized beach erosion and dangerous swimming conditions. A Coastal Flood Advisory means that onshore winds...wave action and/or tides will combine to create flooding of low areas along the shore...and near tidal rivers and creeks. Be prepared for the possibility of road closures and minor flooding of properties. If travel is necessary...do not attempt to drive through water of unknown depth. There is a high risk of rip currents.

Expect up to one foot of water above ground level in low lying, vulnerable areas. Some roads and low lying property including parking lots, parks and lawns near the waterfront will experience shallow flooding. * SURF OR RIP CURRENT RISK...There is a high risk of rip currents along the Atlantic beaches. Large breaking waves of 8 to 10 feet will result in dangerous surf conditions. Do not enter or approach the water due to the risk of being swept away.
