Coastal Flood in Delaware Beaches, Delaware

Some roadway flooding was reported in the tidal areas of the county, and there were some road closures. Some homes and other buildings were surrounded by flood waters with some minor property damage occurring. The tide gauge at Indian River Inlet reached 5.21 feet MLLW.

Strong south to southeast winds resulted in widespread tidal flooding for much of the coast line and tidal waterways. The strong southeast to south winds resulted in a push of water up the Delaware Bay/River and through the back bays of the Atlantic coast. The outcome was the tidal inundation of roads and structures.
