ABOVE GROUND SOMEWHERE WITHIN SURGE PRONE AREAS
- WINDOW OF CONCERN: EARLY THURSDAY MORNING UNTIL EARLY
FRIDAY AFTERNOON
- CURRENT THREAT TO LIFE AND PROPERTY: MODERATE
- EMERGENCY PLANS SHOULD INCLUDE A REASONABLE THREAT FOR
DANGEROUS STORM SURGE FLOODING OF GREATER THAN 3 FEET ABOVE
GROUND.
- TO BE SAFE, EARNESTLY PREPARE FOR THE POTENTIAL OF
SIGNIFICANT STORM SURGE FLOODING IMPACTS. EVACUATION
EFFORTS SHOULD NOW BE BROUGHT TO COMPLETION. EVACUATIONS
MUST BE COMPLETE BEFORE DRIVING CONDITIONS BECOME UNSAFE.
- LIFE THREATENING INUNDATION IS POSSIBLE. FAILURE TO HEED
EVACUATION ORDERS MAY RESULT IN SERIOUS INJURY OR LOSS OF
LIFE. LEAVE IF EVACUATION ORDERS ARE GIVEN FOR YOUR AREA.
CONSIDER VOLUNTARY EVACUATION IF RECOMMENDED. POOR
DECISIONS MAY NEEDLESSLY RISK LIVES.
- POTENTIAL IMPACTS: SIGNIFICANT
- AREAS OF INUNDATION WITH STORM SURGE FLOODING ACCENTUATED
BY WAVES. DAMAGE TO SEVERAL BUILDINGS, MAINLY NEAR THE
COAST.
- SECTIONS OF NEAR-SHORE ESCAPE ROUTES AND SECONDARY ROADS
BECOME WEAKENED OR WASHED OUT, ESPECIALLY IN USUALLY
VULNERABLE LOW SPOTS.
- MAJOR BEACH EROSION WITH HEAVY SURF BREACHING DUNES. STRONG
AND NUMEROUS RIP CURRENTS.
- MODERATE DAMAGE TO MARINAS, DOCKS, BOARDWALKS, PIERS, AND
OTHER COASTAL STRUCTURES. SEVERAL SMALL CRAFT BROKEN AWAY

- PEAK RAINFALL AMOUNTS: ADDITIONAL 4-8 INCHES, WITH LOCALLY
HIGHER AMOUNTS
- CURRENT THREAT TO LIFE AND PROPERTY: MODERATE
- THE FLOODING RAIN THREAT HAS REMAINED NEARLY STEADY FROM
THE PREVIOUS ASSESSMENT.
- EMERGENCY PLANNING 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 RAINFALL FLOODING MAY PROMPT SEVERAL EVACUATIONS
AND RESCUES.
- RIVERS AND TRIBUTARIES MAY QUICKLY BECOME SWOLLEN WITH
SWIFT CURRENTS AND OVERSPILL THEIR BANKS IN A FEW PLACES,
ESPECIALLY IN USUALLY VULNERABLE SPOTS. SMALL STREAMS,
CREEKS, CANALS, AND DITCHES WILL OVERFLOW.
- FLOOD WATERS CAN ENTER SOME STRUCTURES OR WEAKEN
FOUNDATIONS. SEVERAL PLACES MAY EXPERIENCE EXPANDED AREAS
OF RAPID INUNDATION AT UNDERPASSES, LOW-LYING SPOTS, AND
POOR DRAINAGE AREAS. SOME STREETS AND PARKING LOTS TAKE ON
MOVING WATER AS STORM DRAINS AND RETENTION PONDS OVERFLOW.
DRIVING CONDITIONS WILL BECOME HAZARDOUS WITH SOME ROAD AND
BRIDGE CLOSURES.
* 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.
- LOCATIONS COULD REALIZE ROOFS PEELED OFF BUILDINGS,
CHIMNEYS TOPPLED, MOBILE HOMES PUSHED OFF FOUNDATIONS OR
OVERTURNED, LARGE TREE TOPS AND BRANCHES SNAPPED OFF,
SHALLOW-ROOTED TREES KNOCKED OVER, MOVING VEHICLES BLOWN

ESPECIALLY IN USUALLY VULNERABLE SPOTS. SMALL STREAMS,
CREEKS, CANALS, AND DITCHES WILL OVERFLOW.
- FLOOD WATERS CAN ENTER SOME STRUCTURES OR WEAKEN
FOUNDATIONS. SEVERAL PLACES MAY EXPERIENCE EXPANDED AREAS
OF RAPID INUNDATION AT UNDERPASSES, LOW-LYING SPOTS, AND
POOR DRAINAGE AREAS. SOME STREETS AND PARKING LOTS TAKE ON
MOVING WATER AS STORM DRAINS AND RETENTION PONDS OVERFLOW.
DRIVING CONDITIONS WILL BECOME HAZARDOUS WITH SOME ROAD AND
BRIDGE CLOSURES.
* 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.
- LOCATIONS COULD REALIZE ROOFS PEELED OFF BUILDINGS,
CHIMNEYS TOPPLED, MOBILE HOMES PUSHED OFF FOUNDATIONS OR
OVERTURNED, LARGE TREE TOPS AND BRANCHES SNAPPED OFF,
SHALLOW-ROOTED TREES KNOCKED OVER, MOVING VEHICLES BLOWN
OFF ROADS, AND SMALL BOATS PULLED FROM MOORINGS.
