Avoid flood-prone areas

The Hoboken Office of Emergency Management OEM reminds residents to avoid flood-prone areas. Intense rainfall of greater than 0.8 inch per hour could result in flooding.

Please report flooded intersections and clogged drain inlets by calling the NHSA Hotline at (866) 689-3970.

Secure loose objects

Winds of 20 to 30 mph are expected with gusts as high as 50 mph possible.

Residents should secure all loose objects outside or bring them inside, especially from balconies.

Outdoor tents should be taken down depending on the wind load. Use extra caution when driving, especially if operating a high-profile vehicle.

Damaging winds could blow down trees and power lines, resulting in power outages.
