Storm surge with large waves are expected Tuesday morning. The water levels are expected to reach 0.2 to 0.3 m above highest astronomical tide. These conditions can cause damage to infrastructure including boats along the shoreline.

A low pressure system will move through the region on Tuesday, bringing a significant period of strong winds and higher waves. Conditions will begin to improve overnight Wednesday as winds begin to diminish.
