TRANSITIONS TO MORE OF A COMBINED SEA AND SHORTER PERIOD.

WINDS INCREASE SIGNIFICANTLY THIS EVENING. BASED ON THE LATEST NHC

LOW...LIMITING THE IMPACT OF A PROJECTED 1 TO 2 FOOT TIDAL
DEPARTURE TO AT MOST LOW END MINOR FLOODING AT ISOLATED AREAS.
MOST TIDAL LOCATIONS IN THE REGION REQUIRE 2 TO 3 FT DEPARTURES
TO REACH MINOR FLOOD LEVELS. IN ADDITION...HIGH SURF OF 10 PLUS
