A COASTAL FLOOD ADVISORY REMAINS IN EFFECT UNTIL 2 AM EDT TUESDAY.

STRONG HIGH PRESSURE WILL REMAIN ACROSS SOUTHEASTERN CANADA AND PRODUCE A PERSISTENT EASTERLY FLOW ACROSS THE REGION. THE EASTERLY FLOW IN CONJUNCTION WITH HIGH ASTRONOMICAL TIDES WILL PRODUCE TIDAL DEPARTURES OF 1 TO 1 1/2 FT ABOVE NORMAL. THIS WILL PRODUCE WIDESPREAD MINOR COASTAL FLOODING DURING TIMES OF HIGH TIDE.

A COASTAL FLOOD ADVISORY INDICATES THAT ONSHORE WINDS AND TIDES WILL COMBINE TO GENERATE FLOODING OF LOW AREAS ALONG THE SHORE.
