Tropical Storm Warning
Issued by the National Weather Service at 8:00 PM EDT on September 6, 2008
Cape-Henlopen-de 38.78n 75.09w
Merrimack-River-MA 42.84n 70.82w
622 PM EDT Sat Sep 6 2008
... Tropical Storm Warning remains in effect...
... New information...
At 500 PM EDT... the center of Tropical Storm Hanna was about 40
miles west-northwest of Ocean City Maryland and 100 miles
southwest of Atlantic City New Jersey.
... Areas affected...
This statement recommends actions to be taken by persons in
Delaware northeast Maryland... and parts of central and southern
New Jersey.
... Watches/warnings...
In addition to the Tropical Storm Warning... a Flood Watch also
remains in effect through late tonight. Please listen to NOAA
Weather Radio or go to weather.Gov on the internet for more
information about this additional hazard.
... Precautionary/preparedness actions...
The strong winds today may bring down power lines. Have working
flashlights or portable lanterns on hand... as well as a battery
powered radio. Have a supply of spare batteries. Be sure to use
battery powered lights instead of candles to prevent accidentally
starting a fire.
Secure loose objects around the house... such as outdoor furniture
and garbage cans.
Do not park your vehicle under trees... as tree limbs may come down
during the storm.
If you live in a location that is prone to flooding... be prepared to
move inland or to higher ground. Make sure that your vehicle has
enough fuel in the event that you need to evacuate.
Do not drive through flood waters... the water may be deeper than you
think it is.
If you are a boat owner... make sure that your boat is secured.
Be sure to follow the advice of local officials.
... Storm surge and storm tide...
A storm surge of 1 to 2 feet is occurring along the Atlantic coast
and Delaware Bay ahead of the center of Hanna. This surge will
continue for a few more hours until Hanna move northeast of the
area. However... the approach of astronomical low tide this evening
should prevent any widespread tidal flooding.
However... wave action produced by strong gusty winds could increase
total water height along the ocean front and on the bays. Heavy
rain coincident with the times of high tide could also enhance the
flood threat along the ocean and Bay shorelines due to the fact
that runoff will have no place to drain.
Some beach erosion can be expected today from wind and wave
action.
Along the Maryland Eastern Shore... tide levels at Cambridge
Maryland are approaching 3.5 feet above MLLW. Some minor tidal
flooding is possible along the Eastern Shore.
... Winds...
Sustained winds of 37 kt with gusts to 45 kt are being reported at
buoy 44009 about 20 miles off shore from Fenwick Island Delaware.
Wind gusts to 36 kt are being reported over Delaware Bay and
Chesapeake Bay... and along the south Jersey Shore. As Hanna
continues moving northeast over the next three hours... sustained
winds or wind gusts to tropical storm force will spread north
along the New Jersey shore... while winds over the Chesapeake and
Delaware bays and along the Delaware coast will shift to the
northwest and will diminish.
... Inland flooding...
heavy rain is occurring over New Jersey and northern Delaware ahead
of the center of Hanna. Additional rainfall amounts of 1 to 2 inches
are possible over this area before the rain ends from south to
north later this evening. Some flooding of roadways and poor
drainage areas is possible. Rain from Hanna has ended over
central and southern Delaware.
... Tornadoes...
There is a risk of isolated tornadoes this evening ahead of the
center of Hanna over eastern New Jersey.
... Next update...
This statement will be updated around 900 PM.
