A budding and potentially powerful Nor’easter is threatening to bring “major” coastal flooding impacts to parts of the mid-Atlantic Sunday into Monday, prompting New Jersey to already declare a state of emergency.
The combination of strong and persistent northeast winds and high astronomical tides will send pounding surf into the Atlantic coast from Virginia to New England.
But the brunt of the flooding appears focused on the New Jersey and Delaware coasts, along with Delaware Bay.
Coastal Flood Watches are in effect from Sunday through Monday as 12–15-foot waves could mean some areas could see tides reach 2–4 feet above normal.
“Moderate to Major coastal flood impacts are increasingly likely,” National Weather Service forecasters in Mount Holly, New Jersey wrote Friday morning. “Widespread roadway flooding and impassable roads, inundation of structures, and evacuations are possible Sunday-Monday.”
Forecasters say significant beach erosion and dune breaching is also possible due to very high surf.
Acting New Jersey Governor Tahesha Way says all 21 counties in New Jersey are in a statewide emergency starting midday Saturday due to the storm’s threat.

Lt. Governor Tahesha declaring it. Governor Murphy may be at his villa in Italy, which he bought for $7 million 20 years ago. NJ didn't used to have a Lt. Governor.
“3-5 inches of rain with heavy winds”
-
That’s it?.....down here in Florida we call that a slightly above average rain event.
Sounds like somebody’s wanting to line their pockets with federal money to me.
Never let a crisis go to waste.....even if it’s a fake one.
Hysterics hardest hit
Somebody’s watching too much Weather Channel that’s for sure.
Not enough hurricane news this year so have to resort to rain.
DOGE (remember them?) missed this one.
the weather is still off fl and Carolina’s .
Pure fed money scam .
Surfs up yet?
Any time rat declares an emergency close to an election look out
Oh noess!!! That could blow away the thousands of wind mills that grace the landscape!
NY Post needs a spell-checker on its headline.
NJ in permanent state of emergency. What is it about northeast coast that makes so many so damnable? Maybe leakage from Boston and New York?
Will candidate mikie (mickey, whatever, cheater)have a position on this event?
Another BS emergency that NJ residents will ignore! Where is. Bucky?
Probably much ado about very little, but I will still use it as my rationale to work from home on Monday, as I am sure most of my colleagues will as well. No need to drive in that mess.
And Joe Biden is still sitting on the beach in Delaware.
