WHAT HAS CHANGED

Coastal flood advisories added for rest of coastline not in the coastal flood watch for Friday night into early Saturday. Coastal flood statements added for parts of the coastline for early Friday. Otherwise, no other changes from previous forecast.

KEY MESSAGES

1) An early season nor'easter will bring a prolonged period of gusty winds and rainfall. A Wind Advisory has been issued.

2) Coastal flooding impacts expected through early weekend. Greatest impacts expected Friday night through Saturday.

3) High surf and rip current risk through at least Saturday.

KEY MESSAGE 3

High risk of rip currents and high surf through Saturday along ocean shorelines. While ocean swells in outer ocean reach near 13 to 16 ft, surf height of near 7 to 11 ft expected closer to shore. There will be some variation due to swell orientation, with occasionally more ENE vs more ESE swell direction. The lack of orthogonal component to shoreline really limits the surf heights closer to the shore.

However, with current buoy observations running higher than Wavewatch by a few feet, felt wave heights are already within advisory range within the surf zone. Beach flooding and erosion can be expected Friday into Saturday.

OUTLOOK FOR 00Z SATURDAY THROUGH TUESDAY

Friday PM through Saturday night: Lowering to MVFR in the evening then MVFR/IFR conds Sat/Sat night in rain as a coastal storm nears the area. N/NE gusts 30 to 40 kt Friday night into Saturday.
