The nor’easter poses significant risks to coastal areas, particularly the Jersey Shore, which is expected to experience the worst flooding due to the storm’s southern trajectory and the full moon. High winds could lead to downed trees and power outages, especially on Long Island, where gusts may reach 60 mph. Coastal flooding is a major concern for the New York metro area, with water levels expected to rise due to the combination of heavy rain and high tides. Residents in basement apartments are advised to prepare for potential flooding and have an evacuation plan in place. Travel disruptions are also likely due to high winds and waterlogged roads.
