WATCHES AND WARNINGS
\n——————–
\nCHANGES WITH THIS ADVISORY:<\/p>\n

None.<\/p>\n

SUMMARY OF WATCHES AND WARNINGS IN EFFECT:<\/p>\n

A Storm Surge Watch is in effect for…
\n* Edisto Beach South Carolina to the North Carolina-Virginia border
\n* Albemarle and Pamlico Sounds, including the Neuse and Pamlico
\nRivers<\/p>\n

A Hurricane Watch is in effect for…
\n* Edisto Beach South Carolina to the North Carolina-Virginia border
\n* Albemarle and Pamlico Sounds<\/p>\n

Interests elsewhere in the southeastern and mid-Atlantic states
\nshould monitor the progress of Florence. Additional watches may be
\nrequired later today.<\/p>\n

A Storm Surge Watch means there is a possibility of life-
\nthreatening inundation, from rising water moving inland from the
\ncoastline, in the indicated locations during the next 48 hours.
\nFor a depiction of areas at risk, please see the National Weather
\nService Storm Surge Watch\/Warning Graphic, available at
\nhurricanes.gov.<\/p>\n

A Hurricane Watch means that hurricane conditions are possible
\nwithin the watch area. A watch is typically issued 48 hours
\nbefore the anticipated first occurrence of tropical-storm-force
\nwinds, conditions that make outside preparations difficult or
\ndangerous.<\/p>\n

For storm information specific to your area, including possible
\ninland watches and warnings, please monitor products issued by your
\nlocal National Weather Service forecast office.<\/p>\n

DISCUSSION AND OUTLOOK
\n———————-
\nAt 1100 AM AST (1500 UTC), the center of Hurricane Florence was
\nlocated near latitude 26.7 North, longitude 65.3 West. Florence
\nis moving toward the west-northwest near 16 mph (26 km\/h). A west-
\nnorthwestward to northwestward motion with a slight increase in
\nforward speed are expected during the next couple of days. On
\nthe forecast track, the center of Florence will move over the
\nsouthwestern Atlantic Ocean between Bermuda and the Bahamas through
\nWednesday, and approach the coast of North Carolina or South
\nCarolina in the hurricane watch area Thursday and Friday.<\/p>\n

Maximum sustained winds are near 130 mph (215 km\/h) with higher
\ngusts. Florence is a category 4 hurricane on the Saffir-Simpson
\nHurricane Wind Scale. Florence is expected to begin re-
\nstrengthening later today and continue a slow strengthening trend
\nfor the next day or so. While some weakening is expected on
\nThursday, Florence is expected to be an extremely dangerous major
\nhurricane through landfall.<\/p>\n

Hurricane-force winds extend outward up to 40 miles (65 km) from the
\ncenter and tropical-storm-force winds extend outward up to 150 miles
\n(240 km).<\/p>\n

The estimated minimum central pressure is 950 mb (28.06 inches).<\/p>\n

HAZARDS AFFECTING LAND
\n———————-
\nSTORM SURGE: The combination of a dangerous storm surge and the
\ntide will cause normally dry areas near the coast to be flooded by
\nrising waters moving inland from the shoreline. The water has the
\npotential to reach the following heights above ground if peak surge
\noccurs at the time of high tide…<\/p>\n

Edisto Beach to Murrells Inlet…2-4 ft
\nMurrells Inlet to Cape Fear…4-6 ft
\nCape Fear to Cape Lookout including The Neuse and Pamlico
\nRiver…6-12 ft
\nCape Lookout to Ocracoke Inlet…5-8 ft
\nOcracoke Inlet to North Carolina\/Virginia Border…3-5 ft<\/p>\n

The deepest water will occur along the immediate coast in areas of
\nonshore winds, where the surge will be accompanied by large and
\ndestructive waves. Surge-related flooding depends on the relative
\ntiming of the surge and the tidal cycle, and can vary greatly over
\nshort distances. For information specific to your area, please see
\nproducts issued by your local National Weather Service forecast
\noffice.<\/p>\n

RAINFALL: Florence is expected to produce total rainfall
\naccumulations of 15 to 20 inches with isolated maximum amounts to 30
\ninches near the storm’s track over portions of the Carolinas and
\nMid-Atlantic States from late this week into early next week. This
\nrainfall could produce catastrophic flash flooding and significant
\nriver flooding.<\/p>\n

WIND: Hurricane conditions are possible within the watch area by
\nlate Thursday or Thursday night, with tropical storm conditions
\npossible by Thursday morning.<\/p>\n

SURF: Swells generated by Florence are affecting Bermuda and
\nportions of the U.S. East Coast. These swells are likely to cause
\nlife-threatening surf and rip current conditions. Please consult
\nproducts from your local weather office.<\/p>\n
