...TROPICAL STORM WARNING REMAINS IN EFFECT...
* LOCATIONS AFFECTED
- MOBILE
- PRICHARD
- THEODORE
* WIND
- LATEST LOCAL FORECAST: BELOW TROPICAL STORM FORCE WIND
- PEAK WIND FORECAST: 20-30 MPH WITH GUSTS TO 40 MPH
- CURRENT THREAT TO LIFE AND PROPERTY: ELEVATED
- THE WIND THREAT HAS REMAINED NEARLY STEADY FROM THE
PREVIOUS ASSESSMENT.
- 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: LITTLE TO NONE
- DAMAGE TO PORCHES, AWNINGS, CARPORTS, SHEDS, AND UNANCHORED
MOBILE HOMES. UNSECURED LIGHTWEIGHT OBJECTS BLOWN ABOUT.
- MANY LARGE TREE LIMBS BROKEN OFF. A FEW TREES SNAPPED OR
UPROOTED, BUT WITH GREATER NUMBERS IN PLACES WHERE TREES
ARE SHALLOW ROOTED. SOME FENCES AND ROADWAY SIGNS BLOWN
OVER.
- A FEW ROADS IMPASSABLE FROM DEBRIS, PARTICULARLY WITHIN
URBAN OR HEAVILY WOODED PLACES. HAZARDOUS DRIVING
CONDITIONS ON BRIDGES AND OTHER ELEVATED ROADWAYS.
- SCATTERED POWER AND COMMUNICATIONS OUTAGES.
* STORM SURGE
- LATEST LOCAL FORECAST: LOCALIZED STORM SURGE POSSIBLE
- PEAK STORM SURGE INUNDATION: THE POTENTIAL FOR 1-3 FEET
ABOVE GROUND SOMEWHERE WITHIN SURGE PRONE AREAS
- WINDOW OF CONCERN: BEGINS EARLY THIS MORNING
- CURRENT THREAT TO LIFE AND PROPERTY: ELEVATED
- THE STORM SURGE THREAT HAS REMAINED NEARLY STEADY FROM THE
PREVIOUS ASSESSMENT.
- EMERGENCY PLANNING SHOULD INCLUDE A REASONABLE THREAT FOR
PEAK STORM SURGE FLOODING OF GREATER THAN 1 FOOT ABOVE
GROUND.
- TO BE SAFE, PREPARE FOR THE POTENTIAL OF LIMITED STORM
SURGE FLOODING IMPACTS. EFFORTS SHOULD NOW BE UNDERWAY.
- LOCALIZED INUNDATION IS POSSIBLE. FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS
OF LOCAL OFFICIALS. CONSIDER VOLUNTARY EVACUATION IF
RECOMMENDED. LEAVE IF EVACUATION ORDERS ARE ISSUED.
- POTENTIAL IMPACTS: LIMITED
- LOCALIZED INUNDATION WITH STORM SURGE FLOODING MAINLY ALONG
IMMEDIATE SHORELINES AND IN LOW-LYING SPOTS, OR IN AREAS
FARTHER INLAND NEAR WHERE HIGHER SURGE WATERS MOVE ASHORE.
- SECTIONS OF NEAR-SHORE ROADS AND PARKING LOTS BECOME
OVERSPREAD WITH SURGE WATER. DRIVING CONDITIONS DANGEROUS
IN PLACES WHERE SURGE WATER COVERS THE ROAD. 1 TO 3 FEET OF
INUNDATION IS POSSIBLE OUTSIDE THE HURRICANE PROTECTION
LEVEE ON THE EAST BANK OF THE MISSISSIPPI RIVER IN THE LAKE
CATHERINE AREA AND LAKEFRONT AIRPORT. NO INUNDATION
EXPECTED INSIDE THE HURRICANE PROTECTION LEVEES ON THE EAST
BANK AND THE PARISH LEVEE ON THE WEST BANK.
- MODERATE SHORELINE EROSION. HEAVY SURF. STRONG RIP CURRENTS.
- MINOR TO LOCALLY MODERATE DAMAGE TO MARINAS, DOCKS,
BOARDWALKS, AND PIERS. A FEW SMALL CRAFT BROKEN AWAY FROM
MOORINGS.
* FLOODING RAIN
- LATEST LOCAL FORECAST: FLASH FLOOD WATCH IS IN EFFECT
- PEAK RAINFALL AMOUNTS: ADDITIONAL 6-10 INCHES, WITH LOCALLY
HIGHER AMOUNTS
- CURRENT THREAT TO LIFE AND PROPERTY: EXTREME
- THE FLOODING RAIN THREAT HAS INCREASED FROM THE PREVIOUS
ASSESSMENT.
- EMERGENCY PLANNING 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 RAINFALL FLOODING MAY PROMPT NUMEROUS EVACUATIONS
AND RESCUES.
- RIVERS AND TRIBUTARIES MAY OVERWHELMINGLY OVERFLOW THEIR
BANKS IN MANY PLACES WITH DEEP MOVING WATER. SMALL STREAMS,
CREEKS, CANALS, AND DITCHES MAY BECOME RAGING RIVERS. IN
MOUNTAIN AREAS, DEADLY RUNOFF MAY RAGE DOWN VALLEYS WHILE
INCREASING SUSCEPTIBILITY TO ROCKSLIDES AND MUDSLIDES.
FLOOD CONTROL SYSTEMS AND BARRIERS MAY BECOME STRESSED.
- FLOOD WATERS CAN ENTER NUMEROUS STRUCTURES WITHIN MULTIPLE
COMMUNITIES, SOME STRUCTURES BECOMING UNINHABITABLE OR
WASHED AWAY. NUMEROUS PLACES WHERE FLOOD WATERS MAY COVER
ESCAPE ROUTES. STREETS AND PARKING LOTS BECOME RIVERS OF
RAGING WATER WITH UNDERPASSES SUBMERGED. DRIVING CONDITIONS
BECOME VERY DANGEROUS. NUMEROUS ROAD AND BRIDGE CLOSURES
WITH SOME WEAKENED OR WASHED OUT.
* TORNADO
- LATEST LOCAL FORECAST: TORNADO WATCH IS IN EFFECT
- 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.
