Coastal Flood Warning issued October 19 at 2:47PM EDT until October 21 at 8:00PM EDT by NWS Newport/Morehead City NC

Details

What: For the Coastal Flood Warning, 2 to 4 feet of inundation above ground level in low-lying areas near shorelines and tidal waterways. For the High Surf Advisory, large breaking waves of 10 to 14 feet in the surf zone. For the Beach Hazards Statement, dangerous rip currents, large breaking waves expected, and strong longshore currents in the surf zone.

Where: Hatteras Island.

When: For the Coastal Flood Warning, until 8 PM EDT Wednesday. For the High Surf Advisory, until 6 AM EDT Thursday. For the Beach Hazards Statement, until 8 PM EDT this evening.

Impacts: Up to 2 to 4 feet of inundation above ground level is expected in some areas near shorelines and tidal waterways resulting in an elevated threat of property damage. Flooding will extend inland from the waterfront threatening some homes and businesses. Numerous road closures and flooding of vehicles will be possible. Vulnerable portions of NC-12 may be inundated, especially around high tide. There is a possibility of being stranded on Hatteras Island for multiple days. This could be life threatening if you have an emergency. Dangerous swimming and surfing conditions and localized beach erosion. Rip currents can sweep even the best swimmers away from shore into deeper water. Dangerous shore break can throw a swimmer or surfer head first into the bottom causing neck and back injuries. Strong longshore currents will create dangerous swimming conditions.

Additional details: This is a long duration event with uncertainty on when conditions will improve. Significant ocean overwash impacts are expected at vulnerable oceanside areas through multiple high tide cycles into mid week. Minor soundside water level rises will also be possible.

What to do

Take the necessary actions to protect flood-prone property. If travel is required, do not drive around barricades or through water of unknown depth.

Inexperienced swimmers should remain out of the water due to dangerous surf conditions.

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.

Details

What: For the Coastal Flood Advisory, up to 1 to 2 feet of inundation above ground level in low-lying areas near shorelines and tidal waterways. For the High Surf Advisory, large breaking waves of 8 to 10 feet in the surf zone. For the Beach Hazards Statement, dangerous rip currents, large breaking waves expected, and strong longshore currents in the surf zone.

Where: East Carteret County.

When: For the Coastal Flood Advisory, until 8 PM EDT Tuesday. For the High Surf Advisory, until 8 AM EDT Wednesday. For the Beach Hazards Statement, until 8 PM EDT this evening.

Impacts: Up to 1 to 2 feet of inundation above ground level is expected in low-lying areas near shorelines and tidal waterways resulting in a low threat of property damage. Some roads and low lying property including parking lots, parks, lawns, and homes adjacent to the waterfront will experience shallow flooding. Dangerous swimming and surfing conditions and localized beach erosion. Rip currents can sweep even the best swimmers away from shore into deeper water. Dangerous shore break can throw a swimmer or surfer head first into the bottom causing neck and back injuries. Strong longshore currents will create dangerous swimming conditions.

What to do

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.

Inexperienced swimmers should remain out of the water due to dangerous surf conditions.

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.

High Surf Advisory issued October 19 at 2:47PM EDT until October 21 at 8:00AM EDT by NWS Newport/Morehead City NC

Details

What: For the Coastal Flood Warning, up to 2 to 4 feet of inundation above ground level in low-lying areas near shorelines and tidal waterways. For the High Surf Advisory, large breaking waves of 6 to 9 feet in the surf zone. For the Beach Hazards Statement, dangerous rip currents, large breaking waves expected, and strong longshore currents in the surf zone.

Where: Ocracoke Island.

When: For the Coastal Flood Warning, until 8 PM EDT Wednesday. For the High Surf Advisory, until 8 AM EDT Wednesday. For the Beach Hazards Statement, until 8 PM EDT this evening.

Impacts: Up to 2 to 4 feet of inundation above ground level is expected in some areas near shorelines and tidal waterways resulting in an elevated threat of property damage. Flooding will extend inland from the waterfront threatening some homes and businesses. Numerous road closures and flooding of vehicles will be possible. Vulnerable portions of NC-12 may be inundated, especially around high tide. There is a possibility of being stranded on Ocracoke for multiple days. This could be life threatening if you have an emergency. Dangerous swimming and surfing conditions and localized beach erosion. Rip currents can sweep even the best swimmers away from shore into deeper water. Dangerous shore break can throw a swimmer or surfer head first into the bottom causing neck and back injuries. Strong longshore currents will create dangerous swimming conditions.

Additional details: This is a long duration event with uncertainty on when conditions will improve. Significant ocean overwash impacts are expected at vulnerable oceanside areas through multiple high tide cycles into mid week. Minor soundside water level rises will also be possible.

What to do

Take the necessary actions to protect flood-prone property. If travel is required, do not drive around barricades or through water of unknown depth.

Inexperienced swimmers should remain out of the water due to dangerous surf conditions.

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.
