| episode_narrative | The combination of runoff from the heavy rain, the funneling of water into Delaware Bay and higher than normal astronomical tides coming off the full moon produced minor tidal flooding at the times of high tide early in the morning on the 29th. The high tide in Burlington reached 9.94 feet above mean lower low water. Minor tidal flooding begins at 9.0 feet above mean lower low water. The high tide at Philadelphia Pier 12 reached 8.35 feet above mean lower low water. Minor tidal flooding begins there at 8.2 feet above mean lower low water. Less widespread minor tidal flooding occurred with the early morning high tides on the 30th and 31st.The onshore flow was caused by a low pressure system that formed along the Gulf Coast States. This low pressure system was captured by its support aloft and thus moved only slowly northeast from western Alabama on the morning of the 27th. It reformed over North Carolina during the morning of the 28th and become the main low pressure system as it moved northeast to near Norfolk, Virginia during the afternoon on the 28th, through Chesapeake Bay the evening on the 28th, across Delaware Bay around Midnight EST on the 29th and about then east of Atlantic City by sunrise on the 29th. The counterclockwise circulation around this low helped push water into Delaware Bay and slow the runoff from the nearby heavy rain and the snowmelt from the upper parts of the Delaware River. |
