Increasing astronomical tides during the approaching new moon (8/23) combined with increasing NNE winds, and building swells from Hurricane Erin increased local tidal levels through the day, with peak inundation in the evening along the Atlantic coast around high tide, which was around 8 pm EDT. A coastal flood advisory was in effect for minor tidal flooding impacts, including flooding of normally flood prone tidal locations.
