MAJOR STAGE TIDAL FLOODING? | In spots, yes. Major flood stage is a real issue.
Driving around towns is nearly impossible.
People who usually see inches of water see feet of water.
People who rarely flood now flood.
Our research looks at when the last time towns had a high tide this significant. Find the closest town near you and see if you can remember what it was like on that day. That’s what you’ll see Saturday AM.
Here’s a look at what Ventnor City’s flooding depth and extent should look like Saturday morning at high tide. This is more than the usual.

A nor’easter is impacting the Jersey Shore, but this is not mainly a rainstorm. The bigger issues are tidal flooding, strong northeast winds and rough ocean conditions.
Coastal Flood Warnings are in effect for Ocean, Atlantic and Cape May counties, where flooding could threaten property. Monmouth County and other areas are under lower-level coastal flood alerts.
Winds will be gusty today and Thursday, especially along the beaches. Gusts could reach the 30s and 40s mph, so secure outdoor furniture and anything else that can blow around.
The ocean will also be dangerous. Surf could build to 6 to 10 feet, with several rounds of moderate tidal flooding possible. The highest number of flooding rounds is expected from Long Beach Island south.
Thursday and Friday look mostly dry away from the flooding. For the weekend, keep outdoor plans for now, but have a Plan B ready.

Our Proprietary Flood Mapper is America’s best in class. We provide weather-driven current and forecast tidal flooding, out to 72 hours, at hourly timestep, including the depth of the water, at unprecedented resolution.
ShorelySafe turns flood data into action — helping you protect people, run leaner operations, and qualify for lower flood insurance premiums.
We recently completed several major upgrades to the Coastal Flooding Dashboard developed for our ShorelySafe towns and counties.
The updated platform includes an interactive dashboard tour, current and historical flooding comparisons, annual forecasts, 50 years of coastal flood data and sea-level projections extending toward the 22nd century. Users can also customize each chart to focus on the information most relevant to them.
These improvements make complex coastal data easier for residents, municipal leaders and emergency managers to understand and use.
That includes you reading this today! Our in-house Flood Mapper and Flood Dashboard are available to the public in that community.
As flooding becomes more frequent, tools like this can strengthen public awareness, planning and coastal resilience.
View the attached images and visit the dashboard to explore the new features. Ask your town or county to sign up for ShorelySafe!
A long-lasting nor’easter will make for a rough week along the Jersey Shore, even though much of the area will see very little rain after Tuesday.
The biggest concern will be repeated tidal flooding. Minor flooding is expected Tuesday evening, followed by more significant flooding Wednesday through Friday. Atlantic and Cape May counties could even approach major flood stage later in the week, especially around the Friday evening high tide. A full Harvest Moon on Saturday will also help raise normal tide levels.
Strong northeast winds will continue pushing ocean water toward the coast. Gusts could reach 40 to 50 mph along the beaches of Atlantic and Cape May counties, with gusts around 35 to 40 mph farther north. Those winds will also create high surf and dangerous rip currents.
Tuesday will be the main rainy day. Wednesday through Friday should be mostly dry, aside from a few possible sprinkles. Inland areas will mainly deal with gusty winds and a raw feel.
Conditions should begin improving Saturday as winds turn more northerly. However, some tidal flooding could continue into the weekend, and Sunday’s weather will depend on how quickly the coastal storm moves away.
