 Areal Flood Watch
Statement as of 9:04 PM EDT on September 5, 2008 |
... Flood Watch remains in effect from 8 am EDT Saturday through
Sunday morning...
The Flood Watch continues for
* all of southern Connecticut... northeast New Jersey and southeast
New York... including the following counties... in southern
Connecticut... Fairfield... Middlesex... New Haven and New London.
In northeast New Jersey... Bergen... Essex... Hudson... Passaic and
Union. In southeast New York... Bronx... Kings (brooklyn)...
Nassau... New York (manhattan)... Orange... Putnam... Queens...
Richmond (staten island)... Rockland... Suffolk and Westchester.
* From 8 am EDT Saturday through Sunday morning.
* Tropical Storm Hanna... located southeast of Charleston South
Carolina this evening... is expected to continue to move north
overnight... with a turn toward the northeast and an increase in
forward speed on Saturday.
* Heavy rain associated with Hanna will begin to spread into the
area well in advance of the center of the storm overnight. The
heaviest rain is expected Saturday afternoon and Saturday night
as the center of Hanna makes its closest approach... passing very
near Long Island. Total rainfall of 3 to 6 inches... with some
possible higher amounts... will have the potential to produce
flooding across highly urbanized and poor drainage areas... and
cause small streams and creeks to flow out of their banks.
A Flood Watch means there is a potential for flooding based on
current forecasts.
Flash flooding often leads to impassable roadways. Motorists that
attempt to cross flooded roadways put their lives in danger and
can cause thousands of dollars of damage to their vehicles due to
water entering the engine and vehicle.
You should monitor later forecasts and be alert for possible
flood warnings. Those living in areas prone to flooding should be
prepared to take action should flooding develop.

Another threat a tropical storm can pose is to the boating
community. Mariners are advised to remain in port until the
tropical storm threat has passed. Boat owners and Marina operators
in the warning area should prepare quickly for tropical storm
conditions.
Home owners are urged to secure all loose outdoor items. Garbage
cans and lawn furniture can easily become projectiles with the
onset of tropical storm force winds. All residents and visitors
are urged to stock up on batteries... flashlights... drinking water
and non-perishable foods. People are also urged to remain indoors
during the storm as the combination of heavy rain and gusty winds
will result in loose soil and the threat of downed trees... large
tree limbs and power lines.
... Storm surge and storm tide...
Coastal storm surge flooding of 2 to 3 feet above normal tide
levels is expected as Hanna passes just south and east of Long
Island Saturday night. We currently are in a period of neap
tides... which results in low astronomical tides. As a
result... significant coastal flooding is not expected at this
time. However... high seas and rough surf could result in slightly | |
