...COASTAL FLOOD ADVISORY REMAINS IN EFFECT FROM 2 PM TO 11 PM
EDT TUESDAY...
* WHAT...For the Beach Hazards Statement, there is a high risk of
rip currents. For the Coastal Flood Advisory, up to one half
foot of inundation above ground level expected in low- lying
areas near shorelines and tidal waterways.
* WHERE...Eastern Currituck County.
* WHEN...For the Beach Hazards Statement, from 8 AM EDT Tuesday
through Tuesday evening. For the Coastal Flood Advisory, from
2 PM to 11 PM EDT Tuesday.
* IMPACTS...Shallow flooding is expected in the most vulnerable
locations near the waterfront and shoreline resulting in a low
threat of property damage. Expect up to one foot of water above
ground level in low lying, vulnerable areas. Some roads and low
lying property including parking lots, parks and lawns near the
waterfront will experience shallow flooding. Dangerous swimming
and surfing conditions and localized beach erosion.
PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...
If travel is required, allow extra time as some roads may be
closed. Do not drive around barricades or through water of
unknown depth. Take the necessary actions to protect flood-prone
property.
Life-threatening rip currents. If caught in a rip current, remain
calm. Swim in a direction following the shoreline. If tired,
float or tread water until out of the rip current. If unable to
escape, face the shore and call or wave for help.
Shore break occurs when waves break directly on the beach. It is
extremely important to protect your head and neck whenever you
are in breaking waves by keeping your hands in front of you at
all times.
Strong longshore currents can sweep swimmers and surfers into rip
currents, piers, jetties and other hazardous areas. In many
cases, the longshore current is strong enough to prevent swimmers
from being able to keep their feet on the bottom making it
difficult to return to shore.
