Coastal Flood Advisory in Effect Saturday for the Region

The National Weather Service out of Mount Holly, New Jersey has put a Coastal Flood Advisory into effect for the region, beginning at 4:25 AM EDT on Saturday, July 12, and lasting through 11:00 PM EDT that same evening.

Residents living near the coast or in low-lying areas should take precautions, as minor coastal flooding is possible during this period. Authorities recommend avoiding flood-prone areas and staying alert to changing water conditions throughout the day.

Coastal flood advisories are typically issued when water levels are expected to rise enough to cause minor flooding in vulnerable spots, such as roads near the shoreline, low-lying properties, and tidal areas. While this level of advisory does not indicate a severe or life-threatening situation, it does warrant attention from those in affected zones.

Residents are encouraged to monitor updates from the National Weather Service and local emergency management officials as conditions develop throughout the day on Saturday.
