...IMPACTS FROM OPHELIA MAINLY FOR COASTAL AREAS LATER THIS WEEK...

THE LATEST FORECAST TRACK FOR TROPICAL STORM OPHELIA CONTINUES TO 
REMAIN WELL OFF THE NEW JERSEY COAST, SOME 150 MILES. AT THIS 
DISTANCE, THE GREATEST THREAT FROM THE STORM WOULD BE CONFINED TO 
THE DELAWARE AND NEW JERSEY COASTS. THE POTENTIAL IMPACTS, WHICH 
WOULD OCCUR THURSDAY AND FRIDAY, WOULD BE IN THE FORM OF, ROUGH
SEAS, ENHANCED RIP CURRENTS, MINOR TIDAL FLOODING AT TIMES OF HIGH
TIDE, AND MINOR BEACH EROSION. SOME GUSTS TO TROPICAL STORM FORCE
ARE POSSIBLE MAINLY OVER THE COASTAL WATERS OF DELAWARE AND NEW
JERSEY THURSDAY AND FRIDAY.

A COLD FRONT IS FORECAST TO APPROACH OUR AREA ON THURSDAY. ALTHOUGH 
IT IS NOT KNOWN AT THIS TIME IF A LOT OF MOISTURE ASSOCIATED WITH 
OPHELIA INTERACTS WITH THIS COLD FRONT, THE POTENTIAL IS THERE. 
EITHER WAY, OUR REGION SHOULD SEE SOME RAINFALL FROM EITHER THE COLD 
FRONT, OPHELIA, OR THE COMBINATION OF BOTH STARTING LATER WEDNESDAY 
AND ESPECIALLY ON THURSDAY.

WITH SOME UNCERTAINTY STILL EXISTING REGARDING TROPICAL STORM 
OPHELIA'S TRACK, PEOPLE ALONG THE COAST SHOULD CONTINUE TO MONITOR 
ADDITIONAL FORECASTS. WERE THE STORM TO MOVE FURTHER WEST THAN THE 
PRESENT FORECAST INDICATES, IT WOULD POSE A GREATER THREAT TO OUR 
AREA.

STAY TUNED TO NOAA WEATHER RADIO ALL HAZARDS, OR YOUR LOCAL MEDIA 
OUTLETS, FOR UPDATES CONCERNING THE DEVELOPMENTS OF OPHELIA.
