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

ABOVE GROUND SOMEWHERE WITHIN SURGE PRONE AREAS
- WINDOW OF CONCERN: BEGINS LATE THIS MORNING
- CURRENT THREAT TO LIFE AND PROPERTY: HIGH
- THE STORM SURGE THREAT HAS REMAINED NEARLY STEADY FROM THE
PREVIOUS ASSESSMENT.
- EMERGENCY CONSIDERATIONS SHOULD POSTURE FOR A REASONABLE
THREAT FOR MAJOR STORM SURGE FLOODING OF GREATER THAN 6
FEET ABOVE GROUND.
- TO BE SAFE, EVACUEES SHOULD BE LOCATED WITHIN PRESCRIBED
SHELTERS AND WELL AWAY FROM DEADLY STORM SURGE FLOODING
CAPABLE OF EXTENSIVE IMPACTS.
- LIFE-THREATENING INUNDATION IS POSSIBLE. THOSE WHO FAILED
TO HEED EVACUATION ORDERS RISK SERIOUS INJURY, SIGNIFICANT
LOSS OF LIFE, OR HUMAN SUFFERING.
- POTENTIAL IMPACTS: STILL UNFOLDING
- POTENTIAL IMPACTS FROM THE MAIN SURGE EVENT ARE STILL
UNFOLDING.
- THE EXTENT OF REALIZED IMPACTS WILL DEPEND ON THE ACTUAL
HEIGHT OF STORM SURGE MOVING ONSHORE AND THE RESULTING
DEPTH OF COASTAL FLOODING AS EXPERIENCED AT PARTICULAR
LOCATIONS.
* FLOODING RAIN
- LATEST LOCAL FORECAST: FLASH FLOOD WATCH IS IN EFFECT
- PEAK RAINFALL AMOUNTS: ADDITIONAL 10-14 INCHES, WITH
LOCALLY HIGHER AMOUNTS
- CURRENT THREAT TO LIFE AND PROPERTY: EXTREME
- THE FLOODING RAIN THREAT HAS REMAINED NEARLY STEADY FROM
THE PREVIOUS ASSESSMENT.
- EMERGENCY PLANS SHOULD INCLUDE A REASONABLE THREAT OF
EXTREME FLOODING WHERE PEAK RAINFALL TOTALS VASTLY EXCEED
AMOUNTS CONDUCIVE FOR FLASH FLOODING AND RAPID INUNDATION.
RESCUES AND EMERGENCY EVACUATIONS ARE VERY LIKELY.
- TO BE SAFE, AGGRESSIVELY PREPARE FOR THE POTENTIAL OF
DEVASTATING TO CATASTROPHIC FLOODING RAIN IMPACTS.
- LIFE-THREATENING FLOODING IS POSSIBLE. FAILURE TO TAKE
ACTION MAY RESULT IN SERIOUS INJURY, SIGNIFICANT LOSS OF
LIFE, OR HUMAN SUFFERING. IF FLOOD RELATED WATCHES AND
WARNINGS ARE ISSUED, HEED RECOMMENDED ACTIONS. POOR
DECISIONS MAY RESULT IN BEING CUT OFF OR NEEDLESSLY RISK
LIVES. IF VULNERABLE, RELOCATE TO SAFE SHELTER ON HIGHER
GROUND BEFORE FLOOD WATERS ARRIVE.
- POTENTIAL IMPACTS: DEVASTATING TO CATASTROPHIC
- EXTREME FLOODING FROM RAINFALL MAY PROMPT NUMEROUS
EVACUATIONS AND RESCUES.
- RIVERS AND STREAMS MAY OVERWHELMINGLY OVERFLOW THEIR BANKS
WITH DEEP MOVING WATER. CREEKS AND DITCHES WILL BECOME
SEVERELY FLOODED AND CONTAIN STRONG CURRENTS.
- FLOOD WATERS MAY ENTER NUMEROUS STRUCTURES, AND SOME MAY
BECOME UNINHABITABLE OR WASHED AWAY. ROAD SCOURS OR
COMPLETE ROAD FAILURE IS LIKELY IN MANY LOCATIONS, ALONG
WITH THE POTENTIAL FOR SINKHOLES. MANY STREETS AND PARKING
LOTS WILL FLOOD, AND MAY BE IMPACTED BY SWIFT, FLOWING
WATER. NUMEROUS ROAD AND LOW-LYING BRIDGE CLOSURES ARE
LIKELY WITH SOME WEAKENED OR WASHED AWAY. DRIVING
CONDITIONS WILL BE VERY DANGEROUS.
- THE DELIVERY OF DRINKING WATER AND SEWER SERVICES MAY BE
INTERRUPTED. FLOOD WATERS MAY BE POLLUTED AND CONTAIN
HAZARDOUS MATERIALS.
* 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.
