Alert

Hermine

This message is from your Beach Haven Office of Emergency Management. Based on the latest briefing from the NWS, with the onshore wind and multiple cycles of high tides the back bay will not drain as quickly so it will take longer for the roads to clear between tide cycles.  Expect higher than normal street flooding. If you are planning to leave the Island it is our suggestion that you do so before Sunday nights high tide which will occur between 10:30 – 11:30pm.  There is the potential for strong damaging winds with gusts up to 55 mph, which could cause power outages.  Heavy rain will be associated with this storm beginning Sunday into Monday. Be sure to secure all outdoor furniture, move your vehicles to higher ground, plan as you would for any emergency.  Please do NOT go into the surf when lifeguards are not present, as conditions worsen you should not go into the surf at all. For emergencies dial 9-1-1.   Please do NOT call the police department for weather updates instead utilize local media sources.
