Sea Isle City will have to deal with a mixed bag of wintry conditions on Sunday, although snow, like what blanketed the shore during the Jan. 13 storm pictured here, isn't in the forecast.
News
The National Weather Service is warning of coastal flooding, plummeting temperatures and icy conditions during Sunday’s storm.Coastal flood advisories are in effect for high tides through Sunday. Localized moderate flooding is possible along the oceanfront and on the back bays. Minor coastal flooding is possible with the Sunday morning high tide, mostly along the Atlantic Coast, Delaware Bay and the tidal Delaware River. Midday Sunday, a rapid temperature drop will lead to a hard freeze of any areas of slush and standing water, even for areas that received little to no snowfall. Snow is not forecast for the shore.
The flash freeze will lead to very icy conditions Sunday evening and overnight. Bitterly cold air will make clearing ice difficult.Strong winds behind the storm late Sunday through Monday will lead to hazardous conditions over the waters for mariners and localized power outages on adjacent shores.More information is available at the National Weather Service storm briefing at http://www.weather.gov/media/phi/current_briefing.pdf.
