    ... Coastal Flood Advisory in effect from 7 PM to 11 PM EDT this
    evening...

    The National Weather Service in Charleston has issued a coastal
    Flood Advisory... which is in effect from 7 PM to 11 PM EDT this
    evening.

    The combination of onshore winds of 10 to 15 mph and the recent
    perigean Spring tide will allow for tide levels to reach around
    7.0 feet mean lower low water in the Charleston Harbor during the
    evening high tide. High tide in Charleston will occur at 839 PM
    EDT... and in Beaufort at 956 PM EDT.

    The perigean Spring tide occurs only a few times a year... when the
    occurrence of the full or new moon coincides with the perigee of
    the moon. Such was the case early today when the perigee occurred
    along with the occurrence of the new moon.

    Precautionary/preparedness actions...

    A coastal Flood Advisory indicates that winds and tides will
    combine to generate some salt water flooding of low-lying areas
    near the coast. Shallow coastal flooding begins along the
    southern South Carolina coast when tides in the Charleston Harbor
    reach 7.0 feet mean lower low water and along the northern
    Georgia coast when tides reach 9.2 feet mean lower low water at
    fort Pulaski.

    Please contact the National Weather Service in Charleston
    directly at 1-888-383-2024 if you observed any salt water
    flooding through 11 PM EDT. You can also email your reports to
    chs.Skywarn@noaa.Gov or send a tweet to #wxreport.
