Flooding could provide chance for MyCoast pictures

MyCoasters,

Get you phones and cameras ready. There may be some flooding in low lying areas on Thursday morning, 2/25/16. Although the predicted tide heights are a little lower than the mean (average) tide height, there is a potential for a 2 to 2.5 foot storm surge along the RI shoreline. The combination of storm surge, moderate to high wave energy, and stormwater runoff from the land due to the high precipitation may cause some minor flooding and erosion.

Please, DO NOT PUT YOURSELF IN HARMS WAY!
