Alertes en vigueurJamesport, NY

What: 1 1/2 to 2 1/2 ft of inundation above ground level likely in vulnerable areas near the waterfront and shoreline.
Where: Northeast Suffolk and Southeast Suffolk Counties.
When: From 10 PM Sunday to 6 AM EST Monday.
Coastal Flood Impacts: Widespread moderate flooding of vulnerable areas near the waterfront and shoreline possible. 1 1/2 to 2 1/2 ft of inundation above ground level possible in low lying, vulnerable areas. This would 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. Ice cover in the bays and harbors could exacerbate flooding and cause damage to northeast to east facing shoreline structures.
Shoreline Impacts: Breaking surf of 5 to 10 ft along Gardiners Bay, particularly Orient Point and north shore of the south fork, will cause beach flooding and dune erosion during the time of high tide. This may also exacerbate splashover flooding of shorelines roads and properties behind protective dunes, structures and seawalls. Minor damage to shoreline structures possible.
Additional Details: This water level forecast will be highly dependent on timing of windshift from northeast to north storm force winds with respect to the time of high tide, and will be refined over the next 24 hours. Ice cover in the bays and harbors could exacerbate flooding and cause damage to north to northeast facing shoreline structures. Additional minor coastal flooding possible with the Monday afternoon high tide.

Take the necessary actions to protect flood-prone property. If travel is required, do not drive around barricades or through water of unknown depth.
