| episode_narrative | The combination of a high pressure system over nearby Canada, a series of low pressure systems that passed southeast of Delaware and spring astronomical tides caused by the new moon produced widespread minor tidal flooding along the coast and Delaware Bay during the daytime high tide cycles on the second and third. The highest tides occurred on the 3rd. The highest tide at Breakwater Harbor (Sussex County) was 7.19 feet above mean lower low water at 848 a.m. EST on the 3rd. Minor tidal flooding begins at 6.7 feet above mean lower low water. High tide at Reedy Island (New Castle County) was 7.78 feet above mean lower low water at 1148 a.m. EST on the 3rd. Minor tidal flooding begins at 7.2 feet above mean lower low water. The first low pressure system moved rapidly northeast from the Tennessee Valley on the morning of the 1st to southeast of Cape Cod on the morning of the 2nd. At the same time, another low pressure system formed in the western Tennessee Valley on the morning of the 2nd and moved more slowly northeast. It reached near Norfolk, Virginia during the morning of the 3rd and just southeast of Cape Cod during the morning of the 4th. Meanwhile, a large high pressure system moved slowly east from western Ontario Province the morning of the 1st to eastern Quebec Province the morning of the 4th. The high pressure system helped enhance the onshore flow throughout the week. |
