...TROPICAL STORM WATCH REMAINS IN EFFECT...

* LOCATIONS AFFECTED
    - Surf City
    - Hampstead

* WIND
    - LATEST LOCAL FORECAST: Equivalent Tropical Storm force wind
        - Peak Wind Forecast: 30-40 mph with gusts to 50 mph
        - Window for Tropical Storm force winds: early Tuesday
          morning until Tuesday morning

    - CURRENT THREAT TO LIFE AND PROPERTY: Elevated
        - The wind threat has remained nearly steady from the
          previous assessment.
        - Emergency plans should include a reasonable threat for
          tropical storm force wind of 39 to 57 mph.
        - To be safe, prepare for the potential of limited wind
          impacts. Remaining efforts to secure properties should now
          be brought to completion.
        - Hazardous wind is possible. Failure to adequately shelter
          may result in serious injury. Move to safe shelter before
          the wind becomes hazardous.

    - POTENTIAL IMPACTS: Limited
        - Damage to porches, awnings, carports, sheds, and unanchored
          mobile homes is possible. Unsecured lightweight objects may
          be blown about.
        - Some large limbs may break from trees. A few shallow rooted
          or weak trees may snap or be knocked down. Some fences and
          roadway signs damaged.
        - A few roads may become impassable due to debris,
          particularly within urban or heavily wooded locations.
          Hazardous driving conditions are possible, especially for
          high profile vehicles on bridges and other elevated
          roadways.
        - Scattered power and communications outages are possible.

* STORM SURGE
    - No storm surge inundation forecast

    - CURRENT THREAT TO LIFE AND PROPERTY: None
        - The storm surge threat has remained nearly steady from the
          previous assessment.
        - Emergency planning for this event need not include a threat
          for storm surge flooding. The ground will remain largely
          unflooded from surge water or only have spots minimally
          affected by surge water encroachment. Surf conditions may
          still be rough with some beach erosion. Stronger than
          normal rip currents may also be present.
        - Little to no preparations needed to guard against storm
          surge flooding at this time.
        - Ensure readiness for the next storm surge event.

    - POTENTIAL IMPACTS: Little to None
        - Little to no potential impacts from storm surge flooding.

* FLOODING RAIN
    - LATEST LOCAL FORECAST: Flash Flood Watch is in effect
        - Peak Rainfall Amounts: Additional 4-8 inches, with locally
          higher amounts

    - CURRENT THREAT TO LIFE AND PROPERTY: Moderate
        - The flooding rain threat has increased from the previous
          assessment.
        - Emergency plans should include a reasonable threat for
          moderate flooding where peak rainfall totals notably exceed
          amounts conducive for flash flooding and rapid inundation.
          Rescues and emergency evacuations are possible.
        - To be safe, earnestly prepare for the potential of
          significant flooding rain impacts.
        - Dangerous flooding is possible. Failure to take action may
          result in serious injury or loss of life. If flood related
          watches and warnings are issued, heed recommended actions.

    - POTENTIAL IMPACTS: Significant
        - Moderate flooding from rainfall may prompt some evacuations
          and rescues.
        - Rivers and streams may rise and overspill their banks in a
          few places, especially in the typical prone locations.
          Small creeks and ditches may overflow.
        - Flood waters may enter some structures. Underpasses,
          low-lying spots along roadways, and poor drainage areas may
          become submerged by rising water. Some secondary streets
          and parking lots may flood as storm drains and retention
          ponds overflow.
        - Driving conditions will become hazardous, and some road
          closures can be expected.

* TORNADO
    - LATEST LOCAL FORECAST:
        - Situation is somewhat favorable for tornadoes

    - CURRENT THREAT TO LIFE AND PROPERTY: Elevated
        - The tornado threat has remained nearly steady from the
          previous assessment.
        - When implementing emergency plans, include a reasonable
          threat for isolated tornadoes.
        - To be safe, prepare for the potential of limited tornado
          impacts.
        - Listen for tornado watches and warnings. Be ready to
          shelter quickly if a tornado approaches.

    - POTENTIAL IMPACTS: Limited
        - The occurrence of isolated tornadoes can hinder the
          execution of emergency plans during tropical events.
        - A few places may experience tornado damage, along with
          power and communications disruptions.
        - Tornadoes can cause damage to trees, vehicles, boats, and
          buildings. Unsecured mobile homes and poorly constructed
          structures are particularly vulnerable.

        - Ensure readiness for the next storm surge event.

    - POTENTIAL IMPACTS: Little to None
        - Little to no potential impacts from storm surge flooding.

* FLOODING RAIN
    - LATEST LOCAL FORECAST: Flash Flood Watch is in effect
        - Peak Rainfall Amounts: Additional 4-8 inches, with locally
          higher amounts

    - CURRENT THREAT TO LIFE AND PROPERTY: Moderate
        - The flooding rain threat has increased from the previous
          assessment.
        - Emergency plans should include a reasonable threat for
          moderate flooding where peak rainfall totals notably exceed
          amounts conducive for flash flooding and rapid inundation.
          Rescues and emergency evacuations are possible.
        - To be safe, earnestly prepare for the potential of
          significant flooding rain impacts.
        - Dangerous flooding is possible. Failure to take action may
          result in serious injury or loss of life. If flood related
          watches and warnings are issued, heed recommended actions.

    - POTENTIAL IMPACTS: Significant
        - Moderate flooding from rainfall may prompt some evacuations
          and rescues.
        - Rivers and streams may rise and overspill their banks in a
          few places, especially in the typical prone locations.
          Small creeks and ditches may overflow.
        - Flood waters may enter some structures. Underpasses,
          low-lying spots along roadways, and poor drainage areas may
          become submerged by rising water. Some secondary streets
          and parking lots may flood as storm drains and retention
          ponds overflow.
        - Driving conditions will become hazardous, and some road
          closures can be expected.

* TORNADO
    - LATEST LOCAL FORECAST:
        - Situation is somewhat favorable for tornadoes

    - CURRENT THREAT TO LIFE AND PROPERTY: Elevated
        - The tornado threat has remained nearly steady from the
          previous assessment.
        - When implementing emergency plans, include a reasonable
          threat for isolated tornadoes.
        - To be safe, prepare for the potential of limited tornado
          impacts.
        - Listen for tornado watches and warnings. Be ready to
          shelter quickly if a tornado approaches.

    - POTENTIAL IMPACTS: Limited
        - The occurrence of isolated tornadoes can hinder the
          execution of emergency plans during tropical events.
        - A few places may experience tornado damage, along with
          power and communications disruptions.
        - Tornadoes can cause damage to trees, vehicles, boats, and
          buildings. Unsecured mobile homes and poorly constructed
          structures are particularly vulnerable.

        - Emergency planning should include a reasonable threat for
          tropical storm force wind of 39 to 57 mph.
        - To be safe, prepare for the potential of limited wind
          impacts. Efforts should now be underway to secure all
          properties.
        - Hazardous wind is possible. Failure to adequately shelter
          may result in serious injury.

    - POTENTIAL IMPACTS: Limited
        - Damage to porches, awnings, carports, sheds, and unanchored
          mobile homes is possible. Unsecured lightweight objects may
          be blown about.
        - Some large limbs may break from trees. A few shallow rooted
          or weak trees may snap or be knocked down. Some fences and
          roadway signs damaged.
        - A few roads may become impassable due to debris,
          particularly within urban or heavily wooded locations.
          Hazardous driving conditions are possible, especially for
          high profile vehicles on bridges and other elevated
          roadways.
        - Scattered power and communications outages are possible.

* STORM SURGE
    - No storm surge inundation forecast

    - CURRENT THREAT TO LIFE AND PROPERTY: None
        - The storm surge threat has remained nearly steady from the
          previous assessment.
        - Emergency planning for this event need not include a threat
          for storm surge flooding. The ground will remain largely
          unflooded from surge water or only have spots minimally
          affected by surge water encroachment. Surf conditions may
          still be rough with some beach erosion. Stronger than
          normal rip currents may also be present.
        - Little to no preparations needed to guard against storm
          surge flooding at this time.
        - Ensure readiness for the next storm surge event.

    - POTENTIAL IMPACTS: Little to None
        - Little to no potential impacts from storm surge flooding.

* FLOODING RAIN
    - LATEST LOCAL FORECAST: Flash Flood Watch is in effect
        - Peak Rainfall Amounts: Additional 2-4 inches, with locally
          higher amounts

    - CURRENT THREAT TO LIFE AND PROPERTY: Elevated
        - The flooding rain threat has remained nearly steady from
          the previous assessment.
        - Emergency planning should include a reasonable threat for
          minor flooding where peak rainfall totals are near amounts
          conducive for localized flash flooding and rapid inundation.
        - To be safe, prepare for the potential of limited flooding
          rain impacts.
        - Localized flooding is possible. If flood related watches
          and warnings are issued, heed recommended actions.

    - POTENTIAL IMPACTS: Limited
        - Localized flooding from rainfall may occur, especially in
          low-lying and poor drainage areas. Some rivers and creeks
          may rise as a result of the rain. Small streams, creeks,
          and ditches may overflow in some locations.
        - Several storm drains and retention ponds may become full
          and begin to overflow. Some brief road closures are
          possible.

* TORNADO
    - LATEST LOCAL FORECAST:
        - Situation is somewhat favorable for tornadoes

    - CURRENT THREAT TO LIFE AND PROPERTY: Elevated
        - The tornado threat has remained nearly steady from the
          previous assessment.
        - Emergency planning should include a reasonable threat for
          isolated tornadoes, mostly with shorter and narrower damage
          paths.
        - To be safe, prepare for the potential of limited tornado
          impacts.
        - Listen for tornado watches and warnings. Be ready to
          shelter quickly if a tornado approaches.

    - POTENTIAL IMPACTS: Limited
        - The occurrence of isolated tornadoes can hinder the
          execution of emergency plans during tropical events.
        - A few places may experience tornado damage, along with
          power and communications disruptions.
        - Tornadoes can cause damage to trees, vehicles, boats, and
          buildings. Unsecured mobile homes and poorly constructed
          structures are particularly vulnerable.
