Flooding may impact local vulnerable areas near the waterfront and shoreline, including roads, parking lots, parks, lawns, and homes and businesses with basements that typically experience flooding.  1 and ½ to 2 and ½ feet of inundation above ground level can be expected.  The combination of heavy rain, runoff and elevated water levels this evening and early Thursday morning may cause localized flash flooding along some shoreline roads and properties.

All residents are asked to monitor media and news outlets for changing conditions, especially those who live along the coast.
