Noreaster Flooding for AH, Highlands?

[NoLimit]

Will it be worse than 2 weeks ago? Is there a good website for predicting flood heights?

[Gerry Zagorski]

I have not seen any sites that predict the flood heights but yes, I think it's a safe to assume it will be worse than a few weeks ago.

Tide chart below does not take into account the storm, so what ever it turns out to be, the worst should be during predicted high tide periods.

Is your boat still in the water??

[shrimpman steve]

Just heard on news 12. Tide cycles 8-9 feet. Whatever that means. Saturday night and Sunday morning will be the worst. Raritan bay should not be affected as much as the rest of the coast. All this from news 12 as of two minutes aga.

If you think raritan bay won t be effected you have no clue what goes on down here.

Easy there, as I stated, just repeating what I heard on news 12!

This indicates a max 8' over low tide or about a foot more than two weeks ago

I think Sandy was 18' over low tide so this should be a lot less

[Irish Jigger]

It's gonna suck regardless. Hope the boats are blocked high enough !!!

Your kidding right......:)

[Short Cast]

bouy 44065 is showing 35kt winds out of the northeast for the last 3 hours and 10ft waves out of the east, that's not going to push any water into the bay on an incoming tide right?

[FISHGERE]

Beautiful outside no arguing boys it is what it is clean your tackle boxes,stay home and drink.

[Capt Sal]

When Sandy hit the back of Raritan Bay I had a tidal surge to the top of my ceiling. NE counter clock wise pushes water into the bay.

[Reelron]

NE wind does not allow the tide to go out so the next tide stacks up! Good luck! They have called for a Vol. evac of Union Beach about an hour ago.

[shrimpman steve]

Once again, I just related what I heard on news 12 at the time. I hope all are safe. Remember, property can be replaced, life can not.

Good luck to everyone on the coast. No wind up here in Ringwood. Just a ton of snow

[Irish Jigger]

Pops was at the Marina at 3 and all was good. Don't see the tide being an issue but the crazy winds are the only threat.

[NoLimit]

Yes, they are now forecasting that this high tide and the morning tide will not be as bad as this morning. It seems the winds are not as high as initially forcasted.

[shrimpman steve]

That's good news and that's all that matters!

[Trident 13]

Live where river n the bay meet in highlands. Definitely worse this morning. Water was 2ft from top of bulkhead. Now occasional splash coming over hitting side of house. High tide not so fierce tonight

That's good news Trident. Can you please keep us posted?

[bigal427]

Not any where near sandy.
Saturday night tide not to bad

[shrimpman steve]

I guess news 12 was right in the long run About the bay not getting hit as bad as the coast.

[Capt. Debbie]

Depends on definition of bad... is breaking 12 footers on the beach bad for erosion?

Is a four foot tidal-storm surge above normal high tide bad with only 2-3 foot waves?

[shrimpman steve]

In my opinion if no one got hurt or killed it could have been worse.

I hope no one lost property as well. Looked like down south really got hammered with water running thru the streets like a river.
