FAIRFIELD, Conn. – Residents on the west side of Fairfield Beach Road were advised Wednesday to watch for flooding at high tides during the coming storm.
High tides are due to hit Fairfield’s shores at 6:36 p.m. Wednesday and 7:03 p.m. Thursday. The tide is expected to combine with the wind and rain from the overnight storm to create flooding in the low-lying section of Fairfield Beach Road. A Coastal Flood Watch is in effect for southern Fairfield County until Thursday morning, according to the National Weather Service.
Town officials warn residents in the area to move their cars to higher ground before the flooding arrives. Overnight parking will be allowed in the lot of Veteran’s Park throughout the storm, according to a CodeRed message that went out Wednesday afternoon.
