What happened
The episode as NWS PHI wrote it up.
The strong to high northwest winds that occurred throughout the day caused blowout tides to occur in the Upper Delaware Bay and tidal sections of the Delaware River and its tributaries during the late afternoon and early evening low tide cycle on the 19th. The low tide reached 2.08 feet below mean lower low water at Ship John Shoal Light and 2.10 feet below mean lower low water at Reedy Island. Blowout tides start at levels less than 1.80 feet below mean lower low water.
What forecasters said that day

Area forecast discussion, Feb 19, 8:44 AM EST, 7 hours 46 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MOUNT HOLLY NJ
844 AM EST SAT FEB 19 2011
.SYNOPSIS...
STRONG LOW PRESSURE, EXTENDING ACROSS QUEBEC AND CANADA'S
MARITIME PROVINCES THIS MORNING, WILL SLIDE TO THE EAST OVER THE
WEEKEND. MEANWHILE, HIGH PRESSURE FROM THE WEST WILL BUILD INTO
OUR REGION GRADUALLY. AN AREA OF LOW PRESSURE IS FORECAST TO PASS
ACROSS THE GREAT LAKES AND THE OHIO RIVER VALLEY ON SUNDAY NIGHT
BEFORE REACHING THE NORTHEASTERN STATES ON MONDAY MORNING. THE LOW
SHOULD PASS OFF THE COAST ON MONDAY AFTERNOON WITH ANOTHER LOW
FOLLOWING IN ITS WAKE ON MONDAY NIGHT. HIGH PRESSURE FROM THE WEST
IS ANTICIPATED TO FOLLOW FOR TUESDAY, WEDNESDAY AND THURSDAY. LOW
PRESSURE FROM THE WEST MAY REACH THE NORTHEASTERN STATES ON
FRIDAY.
&&
.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 PM THIS EVENING/...
OF THE 00Z NAM, 00Z ECMWF AND 06Z GFS, 12Z 850 HPA WINDS WERE BEST
FORECAST BY THE 06Z GFS THIS MORNING. IT CORRECTLY HIT THE 75 KT
AT IAD, AND WAS WITHIN 5 KT AT OKX AND WAL. IT CONTINUES TO SHOW
SAID WINDS BEING AT OR ABOVE 60 KT LATER THIS AFTERNOON, AND ALL
MODELS SHOW US MIXING TO THAT LEVEL. THE HIGH WIND WARNING
CONTINUES.
TEMPERATURES WILL BE CONSIDERABLY COLDER THAN THOSE OF THE PAST
FEW DAYS. THE CATABATIC FLOW MAY ALLOW TEMPERATURES TO RISE A
FEW DEGREES FROM MORNING READINGS, ESPECIALLY SOUTH. HOWEVER, COLD
AIR ADVECTION TODAY SHOULD KEEP RISES TO A MINIMUM.
WHILE THE SKY OVER MUCH OF THE AREA WAS CLEAR THIS MORNING, WE
WERE ALREADY SEEING AN INCREASE IN STRATOCUMULUS OVER OUR NORTHERN
COUNTIES. THERE WILL ALSO BE A FEW SNOW SHOWERS AND FLURRIES IN
THE HIGHER ELEVATIONS, BUT THE SOUNDINGS ARE CAPPED JUST A BIT
ABOVE 850 HPA AND THE ACTIVITY SHOULDN'T AMOUNT TO ANYTHING
SIGNIFICANT.
&&
.SHORT TERM /6 PM THIS EVENING THROUGH MONDAY/...
THE WIND SHOULD DECREASE GRADUALLY TONIGHT WITH HIGH PRESSURE
MOVING INTO OUR REGION ON SUNDAY. WE ARE EXPECTING AN INCREASE IN
CLOUD COVER ON SUNDAY AFTERNOON AS ANOTHER WEATHER SYSTEM
APPROACHES FROM THE WEST.
A PUSH OF WARM ADVECTION WILL RESULT IN PRECIPITATION IN OUR
REGION ON SUNDAY NIGHT. IT SHOULD BE MAINLY RAIN IN OUR SOUTHERN
COUNTIES. THERE IS EXPECTED TO BE A CHANGE FROM SNOW TO SLEET AND
FREEZING RAIN IN THE NORTH. SNOWFALL TOTALS OF AN INCH OR TWO ARE
POSSIBLE IN OUR FAR NORTHERN COUNTIES, WITH SOME ICE ACCUMULATION
ANTICIPATED FROM PHILADELPHIA'S FAR NORTHERN SUBURBS NORTHWARD.
THE PRECIPITATION WILL DECREASE ON MONDAY WITH TEMPERATURES
WARMING MOSTLY INTO THE 40S AND 50S IN OUR REGION.
&&
.LONG TERM /MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY/...
AS THE FIRST SYSTEM PASSES OFF THE COAST, ANOTHER LOW IS FORECAST
IN ITS WAKE FOR MONDAY NIGHT. THE SECOND LOW IS EXPECTED TO BRING
OUR REGION A RAIN CHANGING TO SNOW EVENT. WHILE THE TIMING OF THE
COLD AIR AND THE TRACK OF THE MORE SUBSTANTIAL PRECIPITATION
REMAINS UNCERTAIN, THERE IS THE POTENTIAL FOR AN ACCUMULATING SNOW
IS PARTS OF OUR REGION ON MONDAY NIGHT.
ONCE THE SECOND LOW PASSES OFF THE COAST, HIGH PRESSURE SHOULD
FOLLOW FOR THE MID WEEK PERIOD.
ANOTHER LOW TRACKING ACROSS THE GREAT LAKES MAY BRING SOME
PRECIPITATION, MAINLY IN THE FORM OF RAIN, FOR FRIDAY.
&&
.AVIATION /14Z SATURDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
THE FOLLOWING DISCUSSION IS FOR KPHL, KPNE, KTTN, KABE, KRDG,
KILG, KMIV, KACY AND SURROUNDING AREAS.
THE COLD FRONT THAT CROSSED OUR AREA EARLIER IN THE NIGHT IS NOW
MOVING OFF TO THE EAST. DRY AIR RUSHED IN BEHIND THE FRONT AND
BROUGHT RAPID CLEARING. WINDS INITIALLY GUSTED TO 40 TO 45 KT IN
SOME LOCATIONS IMMEDIATELY BEHIND THE FRONT BUT HAVE SETTLED DOWN
SOMEWHAT. GUSTS NOW GENERALLY BETWEEN 30 AND 40 KT. ONCE THE SUN
RISES, GUSTS TO 45, OR EVEN 50 KT, ARE POSSIBLE. THE WIND GUSTS
ARE EXPECTED TO REACH THEIR PEAK DURING THE AFTERNOON HOURS TODAY.
GUSTS WILL DROP OFF TO 30 TO 35 KT DURING THE EARLY NIGHTTIME
HOURS, AND THEN FINALLY DIMINISH TOWARD DAYBREAK SUNDAY. THE
AIR MASS IS VERY DRY, SO VERY FEW CLOUDS ARE EXPECTED THROUGH
TONIGHT, ALTHOUGH SOME SC COULD SPILL DOWN FROM THE NW THIS
AFTERNOON. THESE SHOULD NOT AFFECT OUT TAF SITES.
OUTLOOK...
VFR CONDITIONS WILL CONTINUE THROUGH MOST OF SUNDAY. WINDS WILL
SUBSIDE ON SUNDAY. COMPUTER MODELS CONTINUE TO INDICATE TWO
SEPARATE SYSTEMS THAT COULD AFFECT PORTIONS OF THE CWA SUNDAY
NIGHT AND AGAIN MONDAY NIGHT. THE FIRST ONE PASSING BY TO OUR
NORTH AND THE SECOND ONE PASSING BY TO OUR SOUTH. LOWER FLYING
CONDITIONS ARE POSSIBLE WITH BOTH OF THESE SYSTEMS. THE FIRST
COULD HAVE A WINTRY START SINCE INITIAL CONDITIONS WILL BE COLD.
BUT THEN A WARM UP WILL OCCUR IN OUR CENTRAL AND SOUTHERN SECTIONS.
THE SECOND WILL BE A COLDER EVENT AND WILL NEED TO BE MONITORED
CLOSELY. IT HAS TO DO WITH THE ARRIVAL OF COLD AIR FROM THE NORTH
AND MOISTURE MOVING ACROSS TO OUR SOUTH. IF THE TWO ARRIVE AT THE
SAME TIME, SOME PORTION OF OUR CWA COULD BE IN FOR ANOTHER ROUND
OF WINTER WEATHER. THIS SYSTEM IS FORECAST TO MOVE OFF TO THE EAST
BY MIDDAY TUESDAY, LEAVING US WITH CLEARING AND COLDER WEATHER.
&&
.MARINE...
THE COLD FRONT THAT CROSSED OUR AREA EARLIER IN THE NIGHT IS NOW
MOVING OFF TO THE EAST. THE W TO NW FLOW BEHIND THE FRONT HAS
ALREADY PRODUCED GALE FORCE GUSTS ON OUR WATERS. AS THE COLD AIR
ADVECTION INCREASES AND THE PRESSURE GRADIENT TIGHTENS, WINDS WILL
INCREASE FURTHER AND STORM FORCE GUSTS ARE POSSIBLE TODAY INTO
EARLY TONIGHT. STORM WARNINGS WILL BE IN EFFECT ON ALL OUR WATERS
UNTIL 9 PM THIS EVENING. THEN A GRADUAL DECREASE IN WIND SPEEDS
WILL OCCUR LATER TONIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY. AFTER A BRIEF RESPITE
LATE SUNDAY INTO SUNDAY NIGHT, LOW PRESSURE MOVING ACROSS TO OUR
NORTH COULD BRING ADVISORY STRENGTH GUSTS LATE SUNDAY NIGHT AND
MONDAY. FINALLY, ANOTHER LOW PASSES JUST SOUTH OF OUR SOUTHERN
WATERS MONDAY NIGHT INTO TUESDAY. GALE FORCE WINDS ARE POSSIBLE
WITH AND BEHIND THIS SYSTEM.
&&
.FIRE WEATHER...
WITH RELATIVE HUMIDITY VALUES STARTING OUT RATHER LOW THIS
MORNING, WE WILL BEGIN THE RED FLAG WARNING WITH THE EARLY MORNING
FORECAST ISSUANCE AND KEEP IT GOING UNTIL 900 PM. IT CONTINUES TO
APPEARS AS THOUGH THE METEOROLOGICAL PARAMETERS WILL EASILY MEET
THE RED FLAG WARNING CRITERIA THROUGH THE DAY. OUR MAIN CONCERN IS
FOR SOUTHERN NEW JERSEY, DELAWARE AND NORTHEASTERN MARYLAND WHERE
THE FUEL MOISTURE LEVELS ARE GENERALLY LOW OR LOWERING.
&&
.TIDES/COASTAL FLOODING...
THE TIDE OF INTEREST IS THE LOW TIDE CYCLE THIS AFTERNOON INTO
THIS EVENING. STRONG WEST TO NORTHWEST WINDS ARE EXPECTED TO
PRODUCE BLOWOUT TIDES ON THE OCEAN, DELAWARE BAY, AND EVENTUALLY
EVEN THE TIDAL PORTIONS OF THE DELAWARE RIVER. STORM SURGE
GUIDANCE SHOWS LEVELS DROPPING TO AROUND 2 FEET BELOW MLLW DURING
THAT TIDE CYCLE. A LOW WATER ADVISORY HAS BEEN ISSUED FOR THE
OCEAN AND DELAWARE BAY. AN SPS WILL BE ISSUED FOR THE DELAWARE
RIVER.
