Another Flood Advisory in Effect for Wednesday

A string of unusually high tides will continue with a near full-moon tide on Wednesday evening.

The full-moon tide came on Monday night and flooded streets and overtopped some bayside bulkheads.

"The water was so high at Third and Bay that I was picking up horseshoe crabs to put them back on the beach," said Mary Barrus of the Ocean City Fishing Center at 300 Bay Avenue, on Monday.

The National Weather Service issued a coastal flood advisory in effect from 10 p.m. Wednesday (June 6) to 2 a.m. Thursday (June 7). High tide at the Ninth Street Bridge on the bay side of Ocean City is at 10:46 p.m. tonight.

The tides at the Bayside Center between Fifth and Sixth streets in Ocean City have been running 1.5 to 2.5 feet above normal. (See real-time tide gauge at the Bayside Center.)

The Bayside Center tide gauge indicated a high tide about 4.5 feet above a normal mid-tide on Monday night. By comparison, high tides last week were running about 2.0 feet and the highest tide during Hurricane Irene was 4.8 feet. ()

While the new Route 52 causeway has been high and dry, parts of the Black Horse Pike leading to Atlantic City have been flooded at high tide — even under clear skies. 

Salt water has been bubbling up through storm drains on some bayside streets where tide valves are not working properly. Residents and visitors may want to consider moving vehicles away from low-lying areas to avoid saltwater damage.

"Minor tidal flooding is expected around the time of high tide this evening," the National Weather Service says in its advisory.

The evening forecast calls for southwest winds.
