The flooding will primarily affect the most vulnerable coastal and bayside roads, with some partial or full road closures possible.\n\n&#8220;Minor tidal flooding often results in some road closures, usually on the most vulnerable roadways,&#8221; according to the National Weather Service out of Mount Holly, New Jersey.\n\nOfficials are urging drivers to avoid parking vehicles in flood-prone areas and never attempt to drive through flood waters. &#8220;The water may be deeper than you think,&#8221; weather service officials warn, noting that driving through floods puts both drivers and vehicles at risk.\n\nThe advisory affects popular beach communities and inland tidal areas where residents should monitor conditions closely tonight. For the latest water level information and flood impacts for local tide gauges, residents can visit the National Water Prediction Service online.\n\nThe coastal flood advisory expires at 2 AM Sunday morning.","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Minor coastal flooding expected tonight across Delmarva beaches and tidal areas, with up to one foot of water possible in low-lying locations
