沿海洪水警报

* WHAT...For the High Surf Advisory, large breaking waves of 4 to
7 feet in the surf zone. For the High Rip Current Risk,
dangerous rip currents. For the Coastal Flood Warning, 2 to 3
feet of inundation above ground level expected in vulnerable
areas near the waterfront and shoreline. The highest
water levels are likely with the Saturday morning and possibly
Sunday morning high tides.

* WHERE...Kings (Brooklyn) and Southern Queens Counties.

* WHEN...For the High Surf Advisory, until 8 PM EDT Sunday. For
the High Rip Current Risk, through Sunday evening. For the
Coastal Flood Warning, during the times of high tide until 6 PM
EDT Sunday.

* COASTAL FLOOD IMPACTS...Widespread moderate to locally major
flooding of vulnerable areas near the waterfront and shoreline.
Major flooding is primarily a concern for vulnerable communities
along Jamaica Bay, particularly along the north facing
shoreline of the Rockaways. Expect 2 to 3 feet of inundation
above ground level in low lying, vulnerable areas. This will
result in numerous road closures and cause widespread flooding
of low lying property including parking lots, parks, lawns and
homes/businesses with basements near the waterfront. Vehicles
parked in vulnerable areas near the waterfront will likely
become flooded. Flooding will also extend inland from the
waterfront along tidal rivers and bays.

* BEACHFRONT IMPACTS...Breaking waves of 4 to 7 ft along with
elevated water levels will result in widespread dune erosion and
beach flooding. Localized overwashes are possible where dune
structures are compromised, resulting in some flooding of
roadways and vulnerable structures behind protective dunes.
Dangerous swimming and surfing conditions and localized beach
erosion. Life-threatening rip currents are likely for all people
entering the surf zone. Anyone visiting the beaches should stay
out of the surf. Rip currents can sweep even the best swimmers
away from shore into deeper water.

* ADDITIONAL DETAILS....Another round of moderate to locally
major coastal flooding possible for the Sunday morning high tide
cycle.
