...HEAVY RAINFALL AND SOME TIDAL FLOODING POSSIBLE THURSDAY AND
FRIDAY...

THE PERIOD OF FINE AUTUMN WEATHER THAT HAS BEEN ACROSS OUR REGION
EARLY THIS WEEK WILL BE COMING TO AN END BY WEDNESDAY NIGHT. LOW
PRESSURE WILL ORGANIZE OVER THE SOUTHEASTERN UNITED STATES WEDNESDAY
AFTERNOON AND THEN MOVE TOWARDS ACROSS THE REGION THURSDAY. 

A SECOND AND STRONGER SYSTEM WILL MOVE ACROSS THE REGION FRIDAY.
THERE IS THE POSSIBILITY THAT HEAVY RAINFALL WILL ACCOMPANY THESE
SYSTEMS. HOWEVER...THE SYSTEM ON FRIDAY WILL BE THE STRONGER OF THE
TWO, AND HAS A BETTER POTENTIAL FOR HEAVY RAIN.

THE LATEST MODEL GUIDANCE SUGGESTS THAT CONDITIONS MAY BECOME
FAVORABLE FOR TIDAL FLOODING ACROSS THE COASTAL WATERS THURSDAY AND
FRIDAY. THE WINDS AHEAD OF THE LOW PRESSURE SYSTEMS AND THE FACT THAT
WE WILL BE CLOSE TO THE TIME OF ENHANCED SPRING TIDES MEANS THAT
MINOR FLOODING MAY OCCUR THURSDAY. SINCE THE SECOND LOW SHOULD BE
STRONGER, THERE IS THE POTENTIAL FOR MORE SIGNIFICANT TIDAL FLOODING
ON FRIDAY.

THE EXACT TRACK AND STRENGTH OF THESE LOW PRESSURE SYSTEMS REMAINS
UNCERTAIN AT THIS TIME. THEREFORE, YOU SHOULD CONTINUE TO MONITOR THE
PROGRESS OF THESE SYSTEMS.

YOUR NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE WILL CONTINUE TO MONITOR THE UPCOMING
WEATHER SITUATION...AND ANOTHER STATEMENT WILL BE ISSUED THIS
AFTERNOON.
