Debby Weakens To A Depression...Flooding and Coastal Hazards Linger
to the Weekend...

NEW INFORMATION

SITUATION OVERVIEW

Tropical Depression Debby continues to weaken as it drifts
northward into central North Carolina this evening. Debby will push
into the mid-Atlantic and New England through tomorrow.

The heavy rain threat continues into tonight, with an additional
1-2 inches of rain possible especially west of Highway 17. Isolated
flash flooding remains a threat into tomorrow morning. Additionally, a
few tornadoes could produce locally significant damage through this
evening.

Along the coast, minor storm surge with inundation 1 to 2 feet above
ground level remains possible this evening into tomorrow morning.
There also remains potential for minor ocean overwash along the coast
through late week. Stronger and more frequent rip currents will also
exist along area beaches into this weekend.

Dangerous marine conditions are expected to linger through Friday but
slowly improve through the weekend.

POTENTIAL IMPACTS

Additional impacts from flooding rain are still a concern across the rest of
eastern North Carolina. Remain well guarded against dangerous
flood waters having further impacts of limited to significant
potential.

Elsewhere across Eastern North Carolina, little to no impact is
anticipated.

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS

Check on your neighbors. If necessary, help them connect with their
points of contact.

Do not go up on your roof until the weather conditions are safe.
Ladders can be slippery in the rain and unexpected wind gusts can
blow you off the roof.

Problems with sewer backups can further contaminate standing flood
waters. Keep children away from flood waters. Also, listen for boil
water alerts as tap water may have become non-potable.

Be alert for potential flooding from rising rivers and streams which
may have yet to crest. Remain informed of the latest river forecasts
and heed any flood watches and warnings.

Be alert for flooded roads which could be compromised or littered
with debris. Avoid travel until water levels subside and roads have
been cleared. Do not drive through places where flood waters cover
the road. Turn around, don't drown!

Have multiple ways to receive Tornado Warnings if issued. Consider
nearby shelter options as you move about. Be ready to shelter quickly.

NEXT UPDATE

As it pertains to this event...this will be the last local statement
issued by the National Weather Service in Newport/Morehead City NC
