Coastal Flood Advisory

Issued at Sat 1:01 PM Jan. 31
Issued by: National Weather Service
Description

What: One to two feet of inundation above ground level expected in low-lying areas near shorelines and tidal waterways (4.2 to 13.4 feet Mean Lower Low Water).
Where: Barnstable MA and Dukes MA Counties.
When: Multiple high tide cycles Sunday morning into Monday afternoon.
Impacts: Pockets of shallow flooding less than one foot deep. This mainly affects low lying areas and roads near Edgartown Harbor, including the Chappy Ferry Dock. Shallow flooding may also approach Five Corners in Vineyard Haven.
Additional Details: Sub-freezing temperatures and cold road surfaces may allow for some of the storm surge to freeze. This would result in prolonged issues on those vulnerable roadways and also delay drainage.

Recommended Action

If travel is required, allow extra time as some roads may be closed. Do not drive around barricades or through water of unknown depth. Take the necessary actions to protect flood-prone property.
