Higher than normal water levels are expected to impact parts of the coast. Large waves, pounding surf and elevated sea water levels are expected, possibly exceeding high astronomical tide Wednesday morning. Locations: southeastern facing coastlines from Herring Cove to Shelburne. Time span: Near high tide Wednesday morning. Remarks: Storm surge and minor coastal flooding is possible along shorelines exposed to the southeast, especially around high tide. Shore or beach erosion and damage to coastal infrastructure is possible in vulnerable areas. ### Please continue to monitor alerts and forecasts issued by Environment Canada.
