SITUATION OVERVIEW
------------------
Tropical Storm Helene is forecast to strengthen into a major
hurricane as it moves into the southeastern Gulf of Mexico.
The following are the primary hazards of concern with Tropical Storm
Helene:
* Coastal Flooding/Surge - Higher than usual tides due to the
combination of surge from Helene and the recent full moon could lead
to coastal flooding of 3 to 5 ft later this week over portions of
Coastal Collier and mainland Monroe Counties, with the highest tides
expected on Thursday. Inundation could be as much as 6 feet in a few
areas along the Collier County coast if the track shifts east and/or
the storm is stronger. Other vulnerable coastal areas of southern
Florida could also experience minor coastal flooding, especially
around the times of high tide.
* Rainfall - The majority of the rainfall associated with the system
is forecast to fall Wednesday through Friday. Rainfall will range
between 3 to 5 inches across most of the area. Locally higher amounts
of 6+ inches are possible and will depend on how this system tracks
and evolves through the week. A Flood Watch will be in effect for
Southwest Florida and may become necessary for other portions of
southern Florida.
* Wind - The highest probabilities for sustained tropical storm force
winds will be along the Gulf coast of Southwest Florida, including
Collier and mainland Monroe Counties, and adjacent Gulf waters. All of
South Florida could see strong winds gusts with squalls Wednesday
through Friday.
* Tornadoes - An isolated tornado cannot be ruled out on Wednesday and
Thursday as the outer bands of Helene push through the area.
POTENTIAL IMPACTS
-----------------
* SURGE:
Prepare for life-threatening surge having possible significant
impacts across coastal Southwest Florida. Potential impacts in this
area include:
- 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, and piers.
Several small craft broken away from moorings, especially in
unprotected anchorages.
Elsewhere across South Florida, little to no impact is anticipated.
* FLOODING RAIN:
Prepare for dangerous rainfall flooding having possible significant
impacts across Southwest Florida. Potential impacts include:
- Moderate rainfall flooding may prompt several evacuations and
rescues.
- Ditches and canals may quickly become swollen with swift
currents and overspill their banks in a few places, especially
in usually vulnerable spots.
- 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
become hazardous. Some road and bridge closures.
Prepare for locally hazardous rainfall flooding having possible
limited impacts across Southeast Florida.
* WIND:
Protect against hazardous wind having possible limited impacts across
South Florida. Potential impacts include:
- 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.
* TORNADOES:
Protect against a tornado event having possible limited impacts
across South Florida. Potential impacts include:
- 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, 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.
PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS
----------------------------------
* OTHER PREPAREDNESS INFORMATION:
Now is the time to complete all preparations to protect life and
property in accordance with your emergency plan. Ensure you are in a
safe location before the onset of strong winds or possible flooding.
Storm surge is the leading killer associated with tropical storms and
hurricanes! Make sure you are in a safe area away from the surge
zone. Even if you are not in a surge-prone area, you could find
yourself cutoff by flood waters during and after the storm. Heed
evacuation orders issued by the local authorities.
Rapidly rising flood waters are deadly. If you are in a flood-prone
area, consider moving to higher ground. Never drive through a flooded
roadway. Remember, turn around don`t drown!
If a Tornado Warning is issued for your area, be ready to shelter
quickly, preferably away from windows and in an interior room not
prone to flooding. If driving, scan the roadside for quick shelter
options.
Closely monitor weather.gov, NOAA Weather radio or local news outlets
for official storm information. Be ready to adapt to possible changes
to the forecast. Ensure you have multiple ways to receive weather
warnings.

Hydrologic Outlook
Hydrologic Outlook FLC011-086-099-251100- Hydrologic Outlook National Weather Service Miami FL 324 PM EDT Tue Sep 24 2024 ...Heavy Rainfall From Tropical Storm Helene Rest Of This Week... Tropical Storm Helene is forecast by the National Hurricane Center to move through the eastern Gulf of Mexico through Wednesday and Thursday. This will bring deep tropical moisture across South Florida with PWAT values reaching the 2.3 to 2.6 inch range. The aforementioned PWAT values will be at the maximum climatological values for this time of year supporting the potential of heavy rainfall, especially across urban areas. Potential rainfall amounts between tonight through Saturday morning looks to be between 3 to 5 inches over the east coast metro areas of South Florida with locally higher amounts possible where a duration of heavy rain continues for an extended period of time. There is still some uncertainty regarding the forecast over the next couple of days. Users are reminded that shifts in the track of the system may causes changes in rainfall totals as uncertainty still remains. A Flood Watch may be issued if confidence and potential rainfall amounts increase. Interests in South Florida should stay tuned to the latest forecasts from NWS Miami and the National Hurricane Center. $$ Baxter
