Worcester County

Coastal Flooding is expected through Monday night in Worcester County. 

Widespread flooding of vulnerable areas will result in an elevated threat of property damage to homes and businesses near the waterfront and shoreline. Water will be 1 to 2 feet above ground level in some areas resulting in a sufficient depth to close numerous roads and threaten homes and businesses.
 
Flooding will extend inland from the waterfront along tidal rivers and bays resulting in some road closures and flooding of vehicles.

Worcester County Emergency Services (WCES) officials urge area residents to prepare for inclement weather ahead of Tropical Storm Ian. National Weather Service forecasters are predicting four to six inches of rain with possible minor coastal flooding, and high winds with gusts up to 45 mph to impact Worcester County from Friday through Sunday morning.

WCES officials are monitoring the storm track and are urging the public to begin implementing precautionary measures.

Due to anticipated inclement weather this weekend, the Tee Off for Youth Golf Tournament and Fundraiser at the Ocean City Golf Club has been rescheduled for Friday, November 4, 2022, with an 11 a.m. tee off time.

Registration will remain open until Monday, October 31. The cost to participate is $80 per golfer, and all proceeds generated by this event will benefit underprivileged youth who participate in Worcester County Recreation and Parks youth programs, leagues, after school activities, and summer camps.
