* WHAT...Up to one foot of inundation above ground level expected in low-lying areas near shorelines and tidal waterways (2.9 to 13.0 feet Mean Lower Low Water) around the evening high tides. * WHERE...Eastern Essex MA, Suffolk MA, Eastern Norfolk MA, Eastern Plymouth MA, Barnstable MA and Dukes MA Counties. * WHEN...From 9 PM EDT this evening through late Monday night. The evening high tide periods tonight, Sunday night and Monday night are of the greatest concern. * IMPACTS...Shallow pockets of flooding less than one foot deep affects the lowest lying areas along the coast, including Morrissey Boulevard in Boston. Most roads remain passable. Flooding up to one foot deep affects coastal roads on the North Shore from Salem to Gloucester and Newburyport. Rough surf will cause flooding on some coastal roads around the time of high tide due to splashover.

Do not drive through flooded roadways.

* WHAT...Warm air temperatures in the 80s to low 90s may cause people to underestimate the dangers of the cold water temperatures in the upper 50s to around 60. * WHERE...In Maine, Coastal York, Coastal Cumberland, Sagadahoc, Lincoln, Knox and Coastal Waldo Counties.

The times presented here are based upon the solunar theory, which is the idea that the movements of fish and other animals are affected by the location of the sun and moon. The major periods are believed to be the times of the greatest animal activity and occur when the moon is directly overhead or underfoot (lunar transits). The minor periods also see increased activity and occur when the moon is rising or setting. The strongest activity occurs during full or new moons, and the weakest during quarter or three quarter moons. This is indicated by the Action Rating.
