* WHERE...Coastal Horry and Coastal Georgetown Counties.

* WHEN...For the Coastal Flood Advisory, until 8 PM EDT this 
  evening. For the High Surf Advisory, until 8 AM EDT Tuesday. 
  For the High Rip Current Risk, until 8 PM EDT this evening.

* IMPACTS...Vulnerable causeways to and from local beaches will 
  experience minor coastal flooding. Low-lying roads and 
  locations along the Intracoastal Waterway and adjacent tidal 
  creeks will observe minor coastal flooding. Check with local 
  officials for the latest information regarding coastal flood 
  impacts and closures. Dangerous swimming and surfing 
  conditions and localized beach erosion. Rip currents can sweep 
  even the best swimmers away from shore into deeper water.

* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...Affected areas listed are based on 
  average tide conditions. Additional locations may experience 
  flooding during periods of heavy rainfall, high winds, or 
  other factors.

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

If travel is required, allow extra time as some roads may be
closed. Do not drive around barricades or through water of
unknown depth. Take the necessary actions to protect flood-prone
property.

Inexperienced swimmers should remain out of the water due to
dangerous surf conditions.

Swim near a lifeguard. If caught in a rip current, relax and
float. Don't swim against the current. If able, swim in a
direction following the shoreline. If unable to escape, face the
shore and call or wave for help.

Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Wilmington NC
806 PM EDT Sat Sep 14 2024

.SYNOPSIS...
Unsettled weather will continue through early next week as
onshore flow persists. Low pressure developing along a stalled
front offshore may attain some tropical characteristics before
moving back toward the coast. Regardless, the low is expected
to bring some gusty winds and heavy rainfall to portions of the
region through the first part of the week. A stalled upper low
may keep the weather unsettled through the remainder of the
week.

&&

.UPDATE...
709pm EDT UPDATE...
Via latest radar trends, Pops increased, especially far inland
to atleast chance for portions of this evening. Continued and/or
added thunder for the majority of this evening, mainly closer
to the coast. Ended the coastal flood adv threat for this
evening for the immediate coast with levels having already
dropped below flood adv thresholds.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH SUNDAY/...
High pressure ridging into the area from the north and slowly
developing low pressure along a front off the coast, will keep
moist air in place over the area through the forecast period.
This will result in abundant cloudiness and scattered showers
through the period. Lows tonight will be within a couple degrees
of 70, Highs Sunday will reach the lower 80s.

&&

.SHORT TERM /SUNDAY NIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY/...
Key messages:
*Confidence continues to increase with low pressure development
 offshore tonight into Sunday, along with a track toward the
 Carolinas coast Monday.
*Uncertainty remains as to where exactly this system crosses the
 coast at this time since the track will be highly dependent on
 where the low forms offshore.
*Wherever this system moves, heavy rainfall is likely mainly
 near and northwest through east of the center (with peak
 amounts in the 2-5 inch range possible).
*Gusty winds are also possible, especially on the northern side
 of the low as a result of high pressure ridging in from the
 north.

Discussion:
The GFS continues to remain the most aggressive and fastest of
the models with the offshore low coming ashore Monday morning.
Unfortunately some disparity remains between the other models
including the much slower/weaker ECMWF. There is also a chance
that the low attains tropical characteristics prior to moving
onshore. Regardless of the storm's characteristics there is an
increasing likelihood of impacts including coastal flooding,
rough maritime conditions, gusty winds, and heavy rainfall. The
current thinking is that areas generally east of an
Elizabethtown, NC to Georgetown, SC line will see 2 to 5 inch
amounts. Coastal areas will also likely see gusts to 30-40 mph
thanks to the strong Ely gradient between high pressure to the
north and the developing low. If the faster GFS scenario
prevails then conditions would improve by Monday night and
Tuesday with lower PoPs than what is currently advertised.

&&

.LONG TERM /TUESDAY NIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY/...
The old low is expected to continue lifting away from the
forecast area Tuesday night into Wednesday as the mid/upper
ridge north and northeast of the low slides off toward the east.
This will allow a trough to linger across the eastern U.S.,
possibly cutting-off and weakening through the upcoming weekend.
Higher PWATs could linger across the area supporting some PoPs
with an active sea breeze. Temperatures will recover during the
long term, and could be above normal Wed-Fri timeframe.

&&

.AVIATION /00Z SUNDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/...
Onshore flow from the sfc thru the mid levels to affect the
terminals thru the period, as a mid-level low continues to
inhabit the Atl waters off the SE U.S. Coast. This will result
in prevailing MVFR and VFR ceilings which may drop to IFR
ceilings in the heavier pcpn that moves onshore and inland. To
pinpoint the potential flight restrictions, will exhibit with
either tempo or prob30 groups.NE-ENE winds to stay active thru
the night and kept fog to a minimum, mainly occurring with the
pcpn. Otherwise, look for gusts up to 25 kt during daylight Sun.

Extended Outlook...High chances for rain and MVFR/IFR
conditions expected Sun night through early next week as the
pattern remains pretty stagnant. Developing offshore low
pressure could possibly directly impact the area which would
bring more significant restrictions and stronger winds. Should
see some improvement Wed/Thu.

&&

.MARINE...
Through Through Sunday...E to NE winds of 20 to 25 KT with
higher gusts are expected through the period. Seas of 5 to 7
feet this afternoon will build through Sunday afternoon,
ranging from 8 to 11 FT northern water to 6 to 10 feet southern
waters.

Sunday through Thursday...Given the developing area of low
pressure offshore tonight into Sunday, along with ridging in
from the north, the potential for Gale Force winds continues to
increase. As a result, a Gale Watch has been posted for all
coastal waters from Sunday afternoon into Monday afternoon. If
the low is able to attain tropical characteristics then the Gale
headiness will be replaced. The track and timing of the low
remain problematic and the GFS remains the most aggressive and
quickest, while the ECMWF is much slower/weaker. Regardless of
how the low evolves this system will result in hazardous
maritime conditions. The general trend is for better maritime
conditions possibly as early as Tuesday, but more likely by
Wednesday into Thursday.

&&

.TIDES/COASTAL FLOODING...
Elevated astronomical tides and strong northeasterly winds will
lead to elevated tide levels and the potential for minor
coastal flooding at times through early next week. Offshore low
pressure could also have more of a direct impact on water
levels and coastal flooding with each high tide Sunday through
Monday.

Other - Rip Currents: Easterly waves will drive an elevated risk
of rip currents, especially for east and southeast facing
beaches through Monday. In addition, persistent northeasterly
winds will produce moderate to strong longshore currents.

&&

.ILM WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
NC...High Risk for Rip Currents until 8 PM EDT this evening for NCZ106-
     108.
     High Risk for Rip Currents from 6 AM EDT Sunday through Sunday
