A coastal storm moving along the East Coast on Monday will continue to bring the threat of significant coastal flooding, strong to damaging winds and moderate to locally heavy rainfall.

Rain and wind died down Monday morning in the Southeast, while the Northeast saw the worst impacts of the storm through midday.

The storm became more scattered in the Northeast on Monday afternoon, with locally heavy rain possible going into the evening, before it moves out overnight, with only a few areas of sprinkles and light rain left for Tuesday morning.

Wind gusts have reached 4 mph to 60 mph across the Tri-State area over the last 24 hours, with some of the highest gusts along Suffolk County on Long Island, New York.

Coastal flood warnings were in effect from North Carolina to Rhode Island, where moderate to locally major flood stages are possible Monday and may persist through Tuesday in some areas. Warnings from the National Weather Service included coastal flood alerts and high surf advisories.

The worst of the flooding occurred around high tide on Monday afternoon — mostly between noon and 3 p.m. — when strong onshore winds will bring water levels 1 to 3 feet above normal levels, leading to flooding and possible dune breaching.

Moderate to major flooding was still possible on coastlines from the mid-Atlantic to the Northeast. A high surf advisory was in effect for Maine for waves measuring between 5 feet and 10 feet.

The impacts of the nor’easter began in the Northeast on Sunday.

Winds gusted up to 60 mph at Surf City, New Jersey, on Sunday night.

Cancellations and delays were reported at airports in Boston, New York and Washington, D.C., as a result of the storm.

Winds will remain gusty along the coast through Monday evening, from New Jersey to New England.

A wind advisory will continue for the Cape Cod area, where gusts could reach between 40 mph and 50 mph. Gusts between 30 mph and 40 mph are forecast from the Jersey Shore to Long Island.

Winds will begin to diminish on Tuesday as the storm moves out to the Atlantic.
