Coastal Flood Advisory issued for DC

A coastal flood advisory has been issued for the District of Columbia until 8 a.m. Saturday,  October 17th.

There’s also a small craft advisory in place until Sunday afternoon,

According to the National Weather Service (NWS), a low pressure system of the mid-Atlantic coast will continue to push excess water into the Chesapeake Bay and its estuaries.

Combined with tide cycles caused by the lunar cycle, this will produce minor tidal flooding over the next day. Expect tidal flooding to be confined to areas that are typically the first to flood.
