A coastal flood warning remains in effect today, Monday, Feb. 12 through 3 a.m. Wednesday, Feb. 14, with the potential for widespread roadway flooding around the times of high tides as a strong coastal storm moves through the region.
Low-lying roadways including the Black Horse and White Horse pikes leading into and out of Atlantic City may be periodically closed due to flooding.
