coastal flooding statement in effect This statement is in effect for parts of the coast due to the following hazard(s): Very high tides. Higher than normal water levels. Locations: the northeastern coast of Newfoundland from the eastern Avalon Peninsula to St. Lunaire-Griquet, especially along north facing shorelines. Maximum wave heights: 3 to 5 metres, breaking upon approach to shore. Time span: this morning, especially near high tide. High tide: 7:00 A.M. to 10:00 A.M. this morning. Remarks: Long-period swells from the recent storm may continue to produce large breaking waves that drive water farther up onto exposed shorelines. Persistent wave action and surf could elevate coastal water levels beyond normal high tide levels. Coastal erosion may occur in vulnerable locations. Low-lying coastal infrastructure may be at risk of flooding or damage. Avoid affected shorelines where hazardous conditions may develop. ### Please continue to monitor alerts and forecasts issued by Environment Canada.
