Additional Media Coverage: Cape May County Herald Online Thursday, September 2, 2010 -Tropical Storm Warning now in effect for the entire New Jersey Coast and lower Delaware Bay.  Still some uncertainty with Earl’s path.  Any further movement to the west will worsen his impact.  Sustained winds in the 40 mph range are possible along the New Jersey coast with higher gusts.  Expect higher winds over the ocean waters.  Winds will pick up late Thursday and continue through a good part of Friday. Rough surf and rip currents can be expected with this system.  These conditions will continue into the first part of the weekend as Earl moves away from the area. 10-20 foot seas can be expected away from the coast, with 5-10 feet possible near the coast.  Highest seas expected late Thursday through Friday. Given the current forecast track, minor tidal flooding is possible along the New Jersey coastline.  Minor tidal flooding is also possible in the lower Delaware Bay.  Heaviest rain is expected near the coast with less rain inland. One to two inches of rain is expected near the coast with less than 0.50 inches further inland.  Although the water may be a little rough, especially on Saturday, the weekend weather at the beach is expected to be beautiful. 09-02-10 Tropical Briefing Document PDF Link to Cape May County Emergency Management Communications Center     Hurricane Preparedness Guide Hurricane Preparedness Information Page
