RANGE WITH GUSTS TO 100 MPH.

SOME DOWNED POWER POLES. NUMEROUS LARGE BRANCHES OF HEALTHY TREES
WILL SNAP. SOME TREES WILL BE UPROOTED...ESPECIALLY WHERE THE
GROUND IS SATURATED.

...STORM SURGE AND STORM TIDE...
AN EXTREMELY DANGEROUS STORM TIDE WILL RAISE WATER LEVELS BY AS
MUCH AS 6 TO 11 FEET ABOVE GROUND LEVEL IN THE HURRICANE WARNING
AREA IN NORTH CAROLINA...INCLUDING THE ALBEMARLE AND PAMLICO
SOUNDS. NEAR THE COAST...THE SURGE WILL BE ACCOMPANIED BY LARGE...
DESTRUCTIVE...AND LIFE- THREATENING WAVES.

AS HURRICANE IRENE APPROACHES THE COAST...THERE IS AN INCREASING
CHANCE FOR COMBINED STORM SURGE AND ASTRONOMICAL TIDE WATERS UP
TO 9 FEET ABOVE MEAN SEA LEVEL WITHIN AREAS CLOSER TO THE COAST...
RESULTING IN WORST CASE FLOOD INUNDATION OF 4 TO 6 FEET ABOVE
GROUND LEVEL SOMEWHERE WITHIN THE SURGE ZONE.

THE LOCATIONS MOST LIKELY TO REALIZE THE GREATEST FLOODING
INCLUDE THE OUTER BANKS....DOWNEAST CARTERET COUNTY...AREAS
ADJACENT TO THE PAMLICO AND ALBEMARLE SOUNDS...THE NEUSE AND
PAMLICO RIVERS...AND ALONG THE CRYSTAL COAST. GIVEN THE LATEST

INUNDATION OF 6 TO 8 FEET ABOVE GROUND LEVEL SOMEWHERE WITHIN THE
SURGE ZONE. MAXIMUM STORM SURGE OF 10 FT MAY OCCUR IN DOWNEAST
CARTERET COUNTY ALONG THE SOUTHERN PAMLICO SOUND...AND ALONG THE
NEUSE AND PAMLICO RIVERS. ALONG THE OUTER BANKS...5 TO 7 FEET OF

POTENTIAL DUNE BREACHES. A STORM SURGE OF 4 TO 6 FT IS EXPECTED
AT TOPSAIL BEACH. ALONG THE ALBEMARLE SOUND...3 TO 5 FEET. THE
MOST LIKELY PERIOD OF IMPACT WILL BE SATURDAY AND SATURDAY
EVENING.

THERE IS A SIGNIFICANT THREAT TO LIFE AND PROPERTY FROM COASTAL
FLOODING...POTENTIALLY HAVING A MAJOR IMPACT. THE CONCERN IS FOR
THE CHANCE OF MAJOR COASTAL FLOODING TO OCCUR IN AREAS WITHIN THE
SURGE ZONE...RESULTING IN DAMAGING AND LIFE-THREATENING
INUNDATION. IF REALIZED...PEOPLE WITHIN THE THREATENED AREAS WHO
FAILED TO HEED OFFICIAL EVACUATION ORDERS WILL HAVE NEEDLESSLY
PLACED THEIR LIVES IN DANGER. THIS IS ESPECIALLY TRUE FOR THOSE
STAYING BEHIND IN VULNERABLE LOCATIONS SUCH AS HOMES AND
BUSINESSES NEAR THE SHORE...AND ONE STORY DWELLINGS IN FLOOD-
PRONE AREAS.

SEVERAL COASTAL COMMUNITIES WILL LIKELY BE DAMAGED...WITH THOSE
STRUCTURES NOT RAISED OR PROTECTED BY A SEAWALL BEING SUBJECT TO
SIGNIFICANT FLOODING...ESPECIALLY DURING HIGH TIDE. LARGE WAVES
AND POUNDING SURF WILL ACCENTUATE PROPERTY DAMAGE IN EXPOSED
LOCATIONS. FLOOD WATERS MAY EXTEND WELL INLAND IN SPOTS. MANY
CARS WILL LIKELY BE SUBMERGED OR WASHED AWAY.

SUBSTANTIAL BEACH EROSION WILL OCCUR. MANY ROADS WILL LIKELY BE
DAMAGED OR WASHED OUT BY THE FLOOD WATERS...LEAVING SECTIONS OF
COASTAL COMMUNITIES IN FLOOD PRONE AREAS TEMPORARILY CUT OFF.
ROADWAY TRAVEL MAY BE DANGEROUS WITH SEVERAL ROADS CLOSED.

...INLAND FLOODING...

TOWARD THE COAST EARLY SATURDAY. RAINFALL AMOUNTS OF 6 TO
10 INCHES WITH LOCALLY HIGHER AMOUNTS AS MUCH AS 12 INCHES COULD
OCCUR DURING THIS EVENT. THE HEAVIEST RAINFALL IS EXPECTED TO
OCCUR EAST OF HIGHWAY 17. PLEASE LISTEN FOR ANY FLOOD WARNINGS
THAT MIGHT BE IN EFFECT FOR YOUR AREA.

A TORNADO WATCH IS IN EFFECT FOR PORTIONS OF THE AREA. SEE LATEST
FORECAST FOR LATEST INFORMATION. LISTEN FOR POSSIBLE TORNADO
WARNINGS FOR YOUR LOCATION...AND BE READY TO ACT QUICKLY IF A
TORNADO APPROACHES.

...COASTAL HAZARDS...

TODAY. LARGE BREAKING WAVES AND ROUGH SURF WILL ALSO BE A THREAT.
