precautionary/preparedness actions...
Final preparations to protect life and property should be
completed before conditions deteriorate. The onset of gusty winds
and heavy rains can cause outside activities to become dangerous.
Secure loose outdoor objects which can be blown around. If you
live in a Mobile home...leave it for more substantial shelter.
...Probability of tropical storm/hurricane conditions...
the chance for tropical storm conditions at this time is 63
percent. This represents a steady trend since the last forecast.
Tropical storm conditions are most likely to begin Friday
afternoon.
...Winds...
as Hurricane Earl approaches...sustained tropical storm force
winds are expected to begin late Friday afternoon. Maximum winds
are forecast to be in the 30 to 40 mph range with gusts to
50 mph.
Minor damage may occur to older Mobile homes. Residents should
move loose items indoors...such as garbage cans and outdoor
furniture...as they will be blown around. Newly planted or Young
trees and shrubs may be uprooted if not secured properly.
Isolated power outages will be possible.
...Storm surge and storm tide...
as Hurricane Earl approaches the coast...there is an increasing
chance for combined storm surge and astronomical tide waters up
to 2 to 4 feet above mean sea level within areas closer to the
coast...resulting in worst case flood inundation up to 1 to
3 feet above ground level somewhere within the surge zone.
Also...a surge of 1 to 2 ft may follow on Saturday...after the
storm has passed.
