Forecasters say up to one foot of inundation above ground level is possible in low-lying areas near shorelines and tidal waterways.\n\nThe greatest concern is for roads in coastal and bayside communities, where partial or full closures are possible during the evening high tide. Drivers are urged not to attempt to drive through flooded roadways \u2014 water may be deeper than it appears and could seriously damage your vehicle or put your life at risk.\n\nAuthorities also warn against leaving vehicles parked in areas prone to tidal flooding.\n\nThis may not be a one-night event. The National Weather Service says minor tidal flooding could continue through Sunday evening&#8217;s high tide and potentially into Monday, with additional advisories possible.\n\nThe current Coastal Flood Advisory remains in effect until 11:00 PM tonight.
