Coastal Flood Statement
Statement as of 9:12 PM CST on November 7, 2009


.An area of low pressure near the Bay of Campeche is expected to
move north into the western Gulf of Mexico on Sunday. This feature
combined with high pressure over Texas will lead to strong easterly
winds over the Upper Texas coastal waters and increased tide levels.
Tides are forecast to run 1 to 1.5 feet above normal through
tonight. Tide levels will increase to 2 to 2.5 feet above normal
Sunday night.

The highest tide levels are expected to occur during high tide
Sunday night. The main impacts are expected to occur along the Gulf
facing shores although lower lying roads along the bays may be susceptible
to some minor flooding as well.
