Coastal and Marine Hazards
Created by the NWS Miami WFO
Moderate flooding is expected during periods of high tide during the morning and evenings through at least Sunday. Strong onshore winds will aggravate coastal flooding but also increase surf heights and rip current risk along the Atlantic coast. Elevated seas will make for hazardous conditions for small craft in the Atlantic.
