Those "tidal departures" are especially alarming.
In Response To: LI Sound marine forecast ()

This long storm duration will last through a few tide cycles. The big one, monday evenings HT in your boats area has potential to set some records. Is your boat on a floating dock or mooring?

"Tidal departures...1 to 1 1/2 ft above astronomical tides Sunday(nl)night...2 to 4 ft above astronomical tides Monday morning...and(nl)potential for 5 to 10 ft above Monday night into Tuesday(nl)morning. The higher end of the range relegated to the most flood(nl)prone coastal locations."

This could effect scads of people in the flood zone in the metro areas as well as outlying areas.
