The nor'easter poses significant risks to coastal communities along the East Coast, including South Jersey, Virginia, and New York City. Coastal flooding may render roads impassable, particularly in the lower Chesapeake Bay and Jersey Shore areas. High winds and tidal surges could lead to structural damage, beach erosion, and dune scarping. Residents in flood-prone areas are advised to prepare for potential evacuations and property damage. The storm may also disrupt transportation and daily activities in affected regions.
