* WHAT...For the Coastal Flood Advisory, up to one foot of
inundation above ground level in low-lying areas near shorelines
and tidal waterways. For the High Rip Current Risk, dangerous
rip currents. For the High Surf Advisory, large breaking waves
of 6 to 12 feet expected in the surf zone. For the Coastal
Flood Warning, one to two feet of inundation above ground level
expected in low-lying areas near shorelines and tidal waterways.
* WHERE...Delaware Beaches.
* WHEN...For the Coastal Flood Advisory, until 10 PM EDT this
evening. For the High Rip Current Risk, through Friday
afternoon. For the High Surf Advisory, from 8 PM this evening
to 6 PM EDT Friday. For the Coastal Flood Warning, from 4 PM
Wednesday to 1 AM EDT Friday.
* IMPACTS...At this level, widespread roadway flooding occurs in
coastal and bayside communities and along inland tidal
waterways. Many roads become impassable. Some damage to
vulnerable structures may begin to occur. Dangerous swimming
and surfing conditions and localized beach erosion. Rip
currents can sweep even the best swimmers away from shore into
deeper water.
* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...Significant beach erosion is likely
through this week and into the weekend. Moderate tidal
flooding could continue through Friday or perhaps longer.
PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...
A Coastal Flood Warning means that moderate or major tidal
flooding is occurring or imminent. Be prepared for rising water
levels and take appropriate action to protect life and property.
Follow the recommendations of local emergency management
officials.
Do not drive your vehicle through flood waters. The water may be
deeper than you think it is. You will be putting yourself in
danger and your vehicle may be damaged, leading to costly
repairs.
Visit the National Water Prediction Service at
https://water.noaa.gov/wfo/phi for additional water level and
flood impact information for your local tide gauge.
Inexperienced swimmers should remain out of the water due to
dangerous surf conditions.
Always obey posted Beach Flags. If you enter the surf zone,
always have a floatation device with you and swim near a
lifeguard if possible. If caught in a rip current, relax and
float and do not swim against the current. If able, swim parallel
to the shoreline. If unable to escape, face the shore and call or
wave for help.

StaarmannWhat forecasters said that day
The local office's own words before this rip current statement went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.
NWS Philadelphia/Mount Holly wrote its last area forecast discussion before this rip current statement went out at Sep 21, 2:36 AM EDT, 1 hour 34 minutes earlier. Its key messages:
- 1. A frontal boundary south of the region will keep rain chances around through mid-week, especially across southern portions of the area. 2. A closed mid-level low ejecting from the Ohio Valley is expected to lead to the development of a surface low off the Eastern Seaboard during the middle and latter parts of this week. Depending on the track of the low, it could bring increased rainfall chances to the region. 3. Multiple rounds of tidal flooding are expected later this week, with tidal flooding potentially beginning as early as Tuesday evening.

Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Mount Holly NJ
236 AM EDT Mon Sep 21 2026
.WHAT HAS CHANGED...
Increasing confidence of gale conditions during the second half
of the week.
Models are in slightly better agreement on the track of the
late week coastal low, though there remains uncertainty in its
evolution from Friday onward.
&&
.KEY MESSAGES...
1. A frontal boundary south of the region will keep rain
chances around through mid-week, especially across southern
portions of the area.
2. A closed mid-level low ejecting from the Ohio Valley is
expected to lead to the development of a surface low off the
Eastern Seaboard during the middle and latter parts of this
week. Depending on the track of the low, it could bring
increased rainfall chances to the region.
3. Multiple rounds of tidal flooding are expected later this
week, with tidal flooding potentially beginning as early as
Tuesday evening.

.DISCUSSION...
KEY MESSAGE 1...A frontal boundary south of the region will
keep rain chances around through mid-week, especially across
southern portions of the area.
The cold front that crossed through our region Sunday Night is
expected to stall to our south today, and remain there through
Tuesday. It continues to look like it will lift a little closer
to our region Monday Night into Tuesday morning as a warm
front, but remain just south of the area. Due to the closer
proximity, and a mid level short wave trough, mean that that
period will have the highest chance for rain across our region.
Given that our low will be on the cool side of the front,
showers are going to be the main mode of any precipitation.
However, isolated, embedded thunderstorms will be possible over
Delmarva, particularly during the day on Tuesday.
For Wednesday into Thursday, the front should again be on the
move southward, lessening rain chances across the area.
Confidence is high that temperatures will be below normal
starting Tuesday. In fact, temperatures will likely struggle to
get out of the 60s areawide through most of this week.
KEY MESSAGE 2...A closed mid-level low ejecting from the Ohio
Valley is expected to lead to the development of a surface low
off the Eastern Seaboard during the middle and latter parts of
this week. Depending on the track of the low, it could bring
increased rainfall chances to the region.
Most of the models came into better agreement on the track and
the evolution of the coastal low through Thursday. Through this
time, the center of the low should stay far enough off shore
that rain chances across our region will be very low, except at
immediate coastal areas. However, it looks to be a deep and
intense low, so expect a large pressure gradient, even for
inland areas, and thus breezy to windy conditions. For coastal
areas, we could get close to wind advisory thresholds,
particularly later in the day on Wednesday through Thursday.
Friday into the weekend, some models have this becoming a cutoff
low and retrograding eastward. Notably though, this solution is
primarily with the deterministic, physical equation models.
Several ensemble members and some of the main AI models depict
this low continuing northeastward. All that being said, the
forecast, particularly the rain and wind forecast, is very
uncertain from Friday onward.
KEY MESSAGE 3...Multiple rounds of tidal flooding are expected
later this week, with tidal flooding potentially beginning as
early as Tuesday evening.
Regardless of the exact track of the coastal low, it looks as
if we will be in persistent onshore flow from at least Tuesday
onward for the Atlantic Coast, Delaware Bay, and Raritan Bay.
This long of an onshore flow component increases the risk for
tidal flooding, especially for back bays. For the later half of
the week, the track, strength of the low, and fetch will all
play a role with tidal departures. In addition, the full moon is
on Saturday, meaning astronomical high tides are increasing as
we get towards the end of the week.
Minor tidal flooding could begin as early as Tuesday
afternoon/evening's high tide with potential Moderate tidal
flooding on Wednesday.
For the Chesapeake Bay, the expected wind direction tends to
limit tidal flooding concerns, but it will need to be watched if
persistent easterly flow at the mouth of the Chesapeake.

.AVIATION /06Z MONDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/...
The following discussion is for KPHL, KPNE, KTTN, KABE, KRDG,
KILG, KMIV, KACY and surrounding areas.
For KPHL, KPNE, KILG, KTTN, KABE, and KRDG...rain is mostly
east of the TAF sites, so expect prevailing VFR conditions
through this morning and afternoon. MVFR ceilings may linger
through 09Z at KPHL, KPNE, and KILG. Near or after 00Z, more
MVFR ceilings, and an additional round of rain will likely move
through the region. Once the MVFR ceilings move in, expect that
to be the controlling factor in flight category through Monday
Night. Northeasterly winds around 10kt, though occasional gusts
up to 20 kt will be possible.
For KMIV and KACY...rain will be moving out by 08Z. Expect some
temporary breaks to VFR conditions as the rain moves out.
However, as the winds become more northeasterly, MVFR ceilings
could redevelop and continue through much of the TAF period. At
this point, not confident that the clouds around 2k ft AGL will
be at least BKN through the day time, so in the TAFs, have both
sites going to VFR by 12Z and then going back to MVFR by 00Z,
but will be watching trends closely through the day.
Outlook...
Tuesday...Sub-VFR conditions likely in periods of rain and low
clouds.
Wednesday through Friday...While uncertainty is high, sub-VFR
conditions will remain possible at times in rain or low clouds.
Gusty northeast winds are possible.
&&
.MARINE...
Small Craft Advisory conditions are expected starting early to
mid afternoon on the Atlantic Coastal Waters, and Tuesday
Morning for the Delaware Bay. Even though this is an unusual
wind direction for SCA conditions on the Bay, multiple models
depict a several hour period of wind gusts at or above 25 kt, so
have issued the SCA for the Bay from Tuesday morning through
Tuesday Night.
Gales are looking increasingly likely for at least a period of
the mid to late week. Consequently, a gale watch has been issued
for all of the Atlantic forecast zones starting Tuesday Evening,
and for the Delaware Bay starting Wednesday Morning. The watch
currently goes through the day on Thursday, when we have the
most confidence in gale conditions.
Gale conditions may linger into Friday and Saturday depending on
the evolution of the coastal low, which is uncertain in this
time frame.
Rip Currents...
Monday... We'll continue with the MODERATE risk for dangerous rip
currents on Monday as winds will switch around to Northeast and
increase to 15 to 20 mph during the day. Breaking waves in the surf
zone will be around 2 to 4 feet.
Tuesday...Northeast winds strengthen to 20 to 30 mph with wave
heights in the surf zone building to 3 to 5 feet. As a result, there
is a HIGH risk of rip currents both for the New Jersey shore and the
Delaware Beaches.
